Assessment comments The following comments were left by the assessors: (edit · refresh) This is far too chatty and opinionated. Please attempt to review a bit more objectively.

Will someone please write more about the controversy? (i.e. how the book is considered fraudulent by the Native-American community?)128.187.0.164 02:58, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Done.--Alabamaboy 00:25, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

That's quite valuable. The problem is, the article now has an undue emphasis against the book and against Forrest Carter. Neeed to balance this with information about the book's perceived merits and so forth, and/or trimming or tempering the negative statements about the book and Carter by making them neutral. This article needs neutrality. Wikipedia (the first stop when people hear about something and want to investigate it) should not be an undiluted scathing criticism of anything.
