[edit] Comments on the draft

I see that you've put a good bit of effort into rewriting, but I'm afraid that your draft article still reads as very similar to the "Find a Grave" article. The problem really is that this is your only source. Can you find any other sources of information? Could you perhaps track down the newspaper article in which Katherine Cross's death was originally reported? Your article says that "many people" consider that Cross's death was the result of a botched abortion. Who are these people? Can you find some sources to say so? Can you find books, newspaper articles or websites that discuss the "modern legends" about Cross's death? It really seems to me that the way to improve this article is to find more sources. Once you've done that, you can start to think about structure, writing style and so on. (There are quite a few typos in your current draft, so you might want to start by giving it a good proofread.)

Hope this is helpful. Let me know if you have any more questions. MLilburne 21:17, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
