When I quote things, you can use ctrl+f to search the page for the specific line I quoted.
- "He had an adventurous life..." too editorialized. Reword to be more neutral and encyclopedic
- Done. FunkyCanute (talk) 09:55, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
- The block quote on his death reads as rather non-neutral since it contains almost entirely praise which doesn't add much information.
- Removed. FunkyCanute (talk) 09:55, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
- You might want to wikilink "solicitor" in the lead. I don't know what it is, and solicitor is a dab page.
- I have linked to Solicitor (not a dab page).
- The Action at St Eloi Craters section seems to be almost entirely quotes. I would recommend rewriting it to use original prose. See WP:OVERQUOTE.
- After removing the quote from the CO, the balance, I think, is restored.
