Planning on working on this article
I'm hoping to be able to work on this article over the next few months, possibly taking it to FAC if I can get access to all the necessary sources.

 * The current citations are not formatted consistently. I propose to change the formatting to short citations (see e.g. Argosy (magazine) for what that looks like) if there are no objections. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 12:06, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
