The article has lots of uncited statements, including entire paragraphs.
The article has an overreliance on block quotes, negatively affecting the prose of the article.

Is anyone willing to address the above concerns, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 03:49, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article has numerous uncited statements, including entire paragraphs. There is also an overreliance on block quotes, negatively affecting the prose and preventing the article from being concise. Z1720 (talk) 23:07, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delist unless anyone offers to improve the article soon. Apart from the points in the nomination, there appear to be personal commentaries such as "It may not be inappropriate to speculate that some fair portion of the respect generally shown to Whitehead by his philosophical peers at the time arose from their sheer bafflement." and "Here it is worthwhile to quote Whitehead at length".
