As I have looked over this page dedicated to “Mother Featherlegs”, a nickname for Charlotte Shepard, a prostitute who lived in the 1800’s, I have noticed some much needed changes that could definitely improve both the overview and information on the page. For example, even though there is a sufficient amount of information about her adult life there is not much information about her early life. Where she grew up, family history, etc. these would all be good additions to make the page more well rounded. Such as the section that discusses her death, it is written in such a way that comes off as more of a story or something you would see in a magazine and not on Wikipedia. The information on this page needs to be edited and reviewed. Furthermore, there should be more media added to the page whether it be more pictures of her from her early life or other people involved in her life as well. The references are somewhat unreliable because if you open one of them it doesn’t even come up and the other sources are from magazines and stories. Where it says her tombstone is the only American monument dedicated to a prostitute, the page could add more info as to why that is and more as well. I solely suggest more research on Charlotte Shepard’s early life, editing of the more recent information, media, and more reliable sources to make this page well rounded and at Wikipedia’s standards.
