good article criteria at the time. There may be suggestions below for improving the article. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be
renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

This article is almost a personal eessay on the subject. It covers Crosby's life in swathes that uses actual periods of hisotry ie WWI or WWII as backdrops. None of the section headers actually pair up with the time they are talking about, for example the section titled "Later life" starts in the 1930s when she was barely 40.
There is no mention of her work with the Aid Hospital she tried to take to
Narvik in 1940 or her travels through Europe and experiences in
Vichy France. This entire article smacks of vanity. The editors don't understand the subject but they sure as hell fancy themselves as writers. The non linear chronology of this woman's life would make a better screenplay than an article simply stating facts in an encyclopedic style.
