760:(you can imagine it's hard to get my hands on a first edition) but the image is of poor quality. Instead, I have included the frontispiece engraving of Griswold, which still is of low quality but there's no blurry words to read! As far as bibliography, I'd have a hard time finding a complete version but I'll cull one from what's already listed in the article. Not sure why I should remove anything about his anthology from the lede, though... it's definitely his most important work... actually, I'm not sure about what you mean by the comments regarding the lede. I feel that it does justice as a summary of the full article, as per

826:, and I feel it works pretty well. It seems pretty NPOV too (since I changed that word you mentioned), and points out all the pieces that make him notable, describing notable controversy, and serves as a concise stand-alone introduction. It quickly presents Griswold with "to be", briefly jumps through his biography, establishes his notability and influence as editor and anthologist, then jumps to the big controversy that he's known for today. I'm just at a loss. --

I'm sorry! But I went and reverted back to the older version of the lede. I don't feel the new version adequately summarized the article or established his notability or how he's discussed these days. I'm no expert on ledes, but the new version just didn't do him justice, I feel. Can we flesh

This article is really good. I'm just (ironically, as it seems when looking at the old GA review) hesitant about the lead. I think it's too short. I'd like more about his personal life, more about how he supported poetry teaching in schools. Kind of funny but... oh well.
1038:
for a time; good eye. As far as gift book, we had a quick discussion on the FAC review. I was sorta taken aback that everyone didn't already know what a gift book was and didn't realize it needed explanation. My intention is to eventually get a stub article on it.
1008:
In 1843 Griswold founded The Opal, an annual gift book that collected essays, stories, and poetry. Nathaniel Parker Willis edited its first edition, which was released in the fall of 1844. For a time, he was editor of the
Saturday Evening

Thanks for the review, Wrad. I'll take another look at that lead. While you're here, do you feel the "Influence and reputation" section is appropriately named? I've never been fully satisfied with it but I could be over-examining.
1102:
The internal links are helpful. It's hard to identify them further here (i.e. as writers) because that doesn't add much context to this particular line (their writing has nothing to do with their strange interloping).

I never said I didn't want your help...! In fact, I'm sort of begging for it! I'm just confused as heck. How does this lede NOT fully summarize the article, as ledes are supposed to do? I've just re-read
