Problem logged on:  May 2018
The specific problem is:  The article requires biographical information, 
a more detailed catalog of Hodgson's fiction, and 
details about House on the Borderland and The Night Land 
(including quotes from Lovecraft's Supernatural Horror in Fiction). (More details may be found on the Discussion Page.)
