Hi Larry -- well, ok, I couldn't resist lurking!
I note that one of the red links in this article is Mark Twain himself -- whew! -- there's a tall order.  But maybe one way to jump-start the Literature articles would be to send an e-mail invitation to some established authorities on Mark Twain (or any other similar major literary figure), and invite them to write the main entry article from scratch.  In cases where you found a willing participant, these kinds of main entries would at least give CZ a type and quality of content that WP lacks.
