This article needs a disambiguation between James MacDonald and this James E. McDonald. Further, the categories at bottom should consistently point to James E. Mcdonald rather than some to James McDonald and others to James E.
I'm rather concerned that this entry is making a lot of unsourced statements concerning McDonal's intents opinions and relationships with others, as well as a lot of other unsourced references to his work.
It might all be 100% true (or not), but it should still be directly sourced through a citation from a third party such as a biographer or a press report.

I read the article pretty closely and could find nothing that could be classed as "weasel words".
The tag: "This article contains weasel words: vague phrasing that often accompanies biased or unverifiable information." should probably be removed unless someone can point to something in the article that justifies its continued presence. Zedshort ( talk) 20:52, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

At a glance, more than half the article isn't even properly cited.
I would also suggest that many of the claims put forth in the article come from unreliable sources. Riffraff913 ( talk) 17:00, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
