BBC source
editThis appears to contradict the timescales shown in the article which come from the Telegraph. JRPG (talk) 12:43, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
Lede
editAlmost the entire lede is about Ibuprofen ("NSAIDs work by blocking the cyclooxygenase enzyme", indeed), not Adams. What's the best way to fix that? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 23:13, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
Professorship
editThe London Gazette citation for Adams' OBE lists him as "Professor Stewart Sanders Adams",[1] yet obituaries (including Nottingham's[2]) - and the RSC citation on the blue plaques[3] - refer to him as "Dr." Which is correct? If the former; at which institution? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 23:52, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
