Talk:Gilbert Ronald Bainbridge

Revisions after de-PROD
, I've made revisions since your de-PROD a few days ago. I assume the article (as created by in 2008) included information by someone close to Bainbridge with access to his C.V., possibly a COI, since that editor made only Bainbridge-related edits. I assumed good faith, but found only limited support for the section on his career, so I tagged it for additional citations.

I did find references related to Bainbridge's research and his academic degrees. I also accepted on good faith that he was a Wolfson Professor, and C.Eng., F.I.E.E., and F.Inst.P. I did not include the notations for D.P.A. or J.P., because I was unable to decipher either of those acronyms, finding it unlikely he would have a second doctoral degree (Doctor of Public Administration?) and because I was unable to find what a "J.P." might be. Part of the problem may be that those records are ~50 years old by now. Additionally, UK academic degrees/honors from that era are not likely to be accessible online, and I'm on the wrong side of the pond to be able to ferret them out.

 * JP is Justice of the Peace. Don't know about DPA. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:05, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * DPA may also be Diploma in Public Administration, so rather lower than another doctorate (in fact, lower than any degree). Don't know why he'd have that though. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:37, 14 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , I think the DPA notation is a dead end, unless there is an obituary that mentions his post-nominal letters. I've checked Newspapers.com, which indexes the Observer and the Guardian, but apparently nothing in Wales. Do you have access to local newspaper archives?
