Talk:Alan Macfarlane

Was
It might seem like a minor point, but when the article opens with "(name) was..." I assume this means the person has passed away. I've just checked his official website and it seems like he is no longer a professor at Cambridge, but very much still alive, so I'm going to change it to "Alan Macfarlane is a renowned anthropologist and Professor Emeritus of King's College, Cambridge."

Adding Korea to Macfarlane's field of knowledge
The introduction says He is the author or editor of 20 books and numerous articles on the anthropology and history of England, Nepal, Japan and China. I think it would be fair to add Korea to this list. Please correct me if I'm wrong. GHR1961 (talk) 13:53, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
