Article's Organization

I think this article could use an overhaul, particularly with regard to the way Walcott's career is documented. Does anyone think the article could be better organized? Also, I would like to add more organized literary criticism of his work (as well as snippets from book reviews, both positive and negative). Any thoughts?Jpcohen (talk) 04:12, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

I think it's a half decent article (re major events and ref'ing), but yes, it could use a close working over. Span (talk) 00:13, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
