Hello fellow Wikipedians,

Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

Lead

For an article of this length the lead should be two good paras long, covering all the major points of the article.

Will give a careful read once this is done.

Early life

It is good to begin thee article (part after lead) with the full name of the person.

Done Lizard (talk) 18:01, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"The elder Mickal" sounds a bit too informal, you can stick to "father"

College

For years it was known as the "longest scoring pass in the South." Who do you quote here?

I just went ahead and removed it. It was dubious anyway. Lizard (talk) 18:01, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He later said that if he had accepted the senatorship When did he say this?

Done Specified. It was worded oddly in source. Lizard (talk) 18:01, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Later life

Any clear reason behind his death?

The only thing I could find was that he "passed away peacefully." Should I assume natural causes? Lizard (talk) 18:01, 12 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Better remain silent here. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 07:54, 14 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
