I'm not finding anything about whether Mistborn is one of the 12 novels or not. I believe I remember something from a while back where he said he had an early version of a novel that was completely redone (so it wasn't really the same novel) into one of his published novels, but I can't find it.

I think you could get rid of the "Life and Career" section and make the sub-sections tier 2 section headers. You could organize the "works section" (which is called Wheel of Time right now) into sections by date, or by genre of publications, or by audience. I like to divide his works into epic
258:
There's only one two-sentence paragraph now (the one about his marriage and kids), and I think it works fine as it is. The other one has been expanded to be more sentences.
212:
Any more info on why Sanderson was chosen to finish WoT books? Possibly one of the most notable things to happen to him so any more would be good and germane to the article
200:- these sentences a little on the short side, flow more naturally if, "The eldest of four children, Brandon Sanderson was born on December 19, 1975, in Lincoln, Nebraska." 80: 47: 70: 126: 122: 52: 107: 496: 99: 264:
Don't know about Mistborn being one of the 12 previously-written novels or not. I don't think so, but I don't have any refs for that.
75: 562: 545: 338: 306: 225: 177: 156: 286: 273:
Yeah, I'm not a fan with how the bio section has been divided up, but I'm not sure how to change that. I'll think on it.
378: 282: 361:
Okay - am presuming then that pretty much anything online of significance is in article. In which case...
196:
Brandon Sanderson was born on December 19, 1975, in Lincoln, Nebraska. He was the eldest of four children.
115: 17: 245:
section is a bit "and then, and then.." - maybe adding some bits on things that were well-received etc.?

looks pretty good overall - if we don't have sources then what we got is what we got.
392: 555: 535: 331: 299: 215: 167: 166:
Okay I'll take a look, make straightforward copyedits as I go and jot notes below....
146: 579: 549: 355: 323: 290: 281:
fantasy, YA, and "misc" ("other work") in my head. My unsolicited opinion, heh.
229: 181: 160: 254:
Collecting my comments and notes on working on the above-mentioned items:
206:
Was Mistborn: The Final Empire a new book or one of the 12 written before?
267:
I'll see if I can find more details on why Sanderson was chosen for WoT.
261:
Fixed the first two sentences in the bio section by merging them.
270:
I'll work on adding more reception for his more recent works.
236:
Also, reception to his authorship of last 3 books as a whole
