• "625–9" - This is a page range, is it standard for the leading digits of the latter number to be lopped off? I don't see that much (I also mostly edit history articles), and it's a touch confusing to look at.

• 629–35." - Ditto as above

fixed. I see this format a lot but I don't like it so I usually change it   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  22:56, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

• Does the guy who made the Flickr image in the External links have any sort of qualification or subject-matter expertise? If not, I'm not sure if somebody's wild guess should be linked
