Attribution of review corrected

After consulting with Ken and Nikki, we have decided that there is no reason to believe that Whitman authored the unsigned review of the Rossetti volume Poems by Walt Whitman that appeared in the November 1869 issue of The Australian Journal. I have therefore changed the authorship attribution to "unknown."

Added fiction reprints to bibliography and map

We have updated the bibliography of publications and reprints of Whitman's fiction to reflect 22 additional reprints located by Stephanie Blalock.  We have also updated the associated map of publications and reprints of Whitman's fiction.

Metadata updated across Whitman Archive

I have now finished updating the metadata across the Whitman Archive.  This change involved reordering metadata categories; merging location, publication, and transcription information into a "Source" note; updating page titles; and making contributors to digital file, "View XML," and citation options available for several additional sections of the Archive.

Annotation removed from piece of journalism

We have removed an annotation from an editorial in the New York Aurora (per.00390), deeming it confusing and unnecessary. The annotation in question was previously the third in this editorial.

Added links to Published Works index pages

I have updated the index pages for "Published Works" and "Other Books" to include links to Whitman's short temperance novel Franklin Evans (published on the Whitman Archive under "Periodicals") and to a transcription of Whitman's novel Jack Engle that was recently published in the Walt Whitman Quarterly Review.  Jack Engle is currently being edited for publication on the Whitman Archive.

Corrected Maire Mullins's name in encyclopedia

Ken noticed that Maire Mullins's first name had been misspelled "Marie" in the entries for both "From Pent-up Aching Rivers" (1860) and "A Woman Waits for Me" (1856). I have now corrected it.
