Thanks for the comma corrections. I went back and forth on those when I created the article, and finally decided to leave the few errors in place to preserve the authenticity of the biographical text (which was provided by Cohn herself.) Scott Johnson 13:50, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

I was going to leave a comment on the need for NPOV and cleaning up the biography so it sounds encyclopedic, but it sounds like the reason for keeping the text unaltered is because it's a quote from her own biography. Not sure that using her own biographic material is really going to be NPOV, but if no one wants to rewrite the article then it should at least be noted that this is a quote! --Arden667 21:41, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:SevenYearSurrender.jpg

Image:SevenYearSurrender.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Copywriting

This article is in severe need of a rewrite. Its tone is not encyclopedic, and reads like ad copy.
