  • Symbol question.svg New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook is interesting and offline hook ref AGF and cited inline. QPQ done. However, I added numerous "citation needed" tags to important facts in the article; the last sentence in the note is something that could be construed as OR without a citation.

I have removed the OR content (1940 makes no sense because his son was already SU's president by 1938), and asked Parkwells to reference the content they've added.Zigzig20s (talk) 21:25, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
User:Yoninah: I have tried to fix all the issues you raised earlier.Zigzig20s (talk) 03:47, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Symbol voting keep.svg Thank you. You improved the article a lot. It was a good idea to remove all that biographical information about his son, who already has his own article. I did add back the fact that his son succeeded him as president. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 11:48, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
