Review[edit]

Hi mate, good article. I think it is a B class, however, can you please address one problem - in the introduction it is stated that Taylor died of lung cancer, whilst in the final section on his retirement it says that he died of stomach cancer. Other than that, I think it is pretty good. A photograph would add to it, if you could add one, but that's not always possible I know. Well done.

Thanks for the assessment and pointing out my error; they were both ment to say lung cancer. I have no idea where I got stomach from! :) Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 02:30, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
