I'll take a look at this shortly. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 14:52, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Prelim

[edit]
  • No duplicated links (bar DFC in the lede which is fair enough)
  • Image correctly licensed
  • Article is stable
  • Earwig reports copyvio unlikely

Lede and infobox

[edit]
  • Useful to include what he flew prior to Defiants if we're including every aircraft after that point

Early life

[edit]
  • "at the Wellington Technical College"
  • "serial number" should be "service number"

Second World War

[edit]
  • To avoid lots of "form": "The squadron was newly reformed for night fighting..."
  • Can we give a date for flying officer promotion?
  • "Middle East" would be better called "Mediterranean"
  • Identify who Shores and Williams are, e.g. military historians
  • Did Josling survive?
  • Link the whole of the Gazette name

References

[edit]
  • References look good. AGF for print sources.
