 * Lol, very fitting! sorry for the wait, I have now finished the review. Feel free to refute anything or ask me any questions and take as long as you need,  ❧ LunaEatsTuna  (talk), changing "is" to "was" since 2017 – posted at 22:26, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
 * @LunaEatsTuna: I believe your concerns have been addressed. Unfortunately, I was unable to find any dates for when he was a coal operator, and I was unable to figure out what the F in his name stands for. Thank you for taking the time to review my article!

 * Da review:
 * Is it possible to add page numbers to the History of Kentucky book so that I know which specific pages are being cited?
 * Early life and education
 * Do we know what the F in his name stands for or nah?
 * Parents' names usually go last (because the birthdate/birthplace is more relevant).
 * "Veal in 1890, in Tazewell, Tennessee, they had" – should be "Veal in 1890, in Tazewell, Tennessee, and they had".
 * Career
 * I think it should be "where, for about ten years, he".
 * Regarding the coal companies, are there perhaps any dates available somewhere in any RS sources that say when he served those positions?
 * "elected judge of Middlesboro, Kentucky" – just "Middlesboro" is fine here since the location is already mentioned earlier.
 * Should it not be "for the 94th district" (and 17th district) since he was elected to represent those?
 * You should wikilink Kentucky House of Representatives and Republican Party (United States) (in Republicans).
 * "He served as speaker for two years from 1920 to 1922 until Republicans lost their majority" > "He served as speaker between 1920 and 1922 when the Republicans lost their majority" (saying "two years" is redundant here).
 * "He served as a representative until 1940" > "Bosworth served as a representative until 1940" since someone else was just mentioned.
 * The last paragraph needs a lot of tweaking:
 * The first two sentences both use Kentucky and amendments which make them sound a bit repetitive, so rephrase it if you can.
 * "Over eight years" – state which years here if possible so that it is more informative for readers.
 * "helped Middlesboro become a third-class city instead of a fourth-class city" – explain what these terms mean.
 * Explain what the Kentucky Pure Food and Drug Law did, as you do so for the appropriation law.
