Comments

 * I have no idea what "particular service" is.
 * Neither do I! Hopefully a source will come up some day which expands on that service.


 * Any idea why his son changed his name?
 * No. Was quite commonly done upon the receipt of an inheritance though.


 * I added an image. Too bad we can't find his wife's portrait.
 * Yes, I've no doubt it still exists, but whether it gets digitised is another question!

Source review

 * Sources are high quality.
 * Spot checks:
 * 64: okay
 * 6, 8, 16, 31, 39 52, 60, 75 : Assume good faith on offline sources
 * fn 12 looks odd with the low page number coming second. Check that a larger number is not intended.
 * Double checked. It is correct.

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


 * 1) Is it well written?
 * A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
 * I am not much good at grammar myself, and generally rely on others to correct my work. I have made a series of changes related to comma usage, but feel free to revert where you disagree. I found the use of "in the ship" jarring, as I would always say "on the ship" but did not change this, as you're an Englishman with a double-barrel nick, and therefore acquainted with the language, and I am just an Aussie ex-Customs officer.
 * B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
 * 1) Is it verifiable with no original research?
 * A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
 * B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
 * C. It contains no original research:
 * D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
 * 1) Is it broad in its coverage?
 * A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
 * B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
 * 1) Is it neutral?
 * It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
 * 1) Is it stable?
 * It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
 * 1) Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
 * A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:
 * Two images, both correctly licensed.
 * B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass or Fail:
 * All good. Passing.
