Comments Otherwise, as usual, a top notch piece of work. On hold for the moment. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:12, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "the northeast United States " why just northeast in the pipe when the link is simply Northeastern United States?
 * Done.  Ergo Sum  19:37, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "in Annapolis, Maryland to" comma before to.
 * That's not a dependent clause, so a comma, I think, is unwarranted.  Ergo Sum  19:38, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I think, per MOS:GEOCOMMA, it's required. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:51, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Right you are. I didn't know the WP policy was that. Can't say I'm a huge fan of it, but that's the policy. Fixed.  Ergo Sum  02:32, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "January 16, 1855 in" comma after 1855.
 * Ditto.  Ergo Sum  19:39, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "a Mason Scholarship" what's this?
 * Truthfully, I have no idea. It was important enough that the reference mentioned it, so I figured I'd include it.  Ergo Sum  19:39, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "the classics" I would think it more useful to link this than, say, Germany...
 * Linked.  Ergo Sum  19:40, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "in Worcester, Massachusetts a year " comma before a.
 * Ditto.  Ergo Sum  19:40, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Fixed.  Ergo Sum  02:34, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "August 27, 1885 by " etc.
 * Ditto.  Ergo Sum  19:41, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Is Himmel really "anglicized"? I thought it meant heaven?
 * I'm not expert in German, but I think you're right. I believe it's anglicized in the way that many foreign surnames were shortened in the United States to reduce their foreign-ness.  Ergo Sum  19:42, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "During his time on the mission band" and "over the course of his eventual twenty years as a missionary" - both in the same sentence seem unneccessary?
 * Rephrased by utilizing the ever-useful semi-colon.  Ergo Sum  19:43, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * What is tertianship?
 * It's a stage of Jesuit formation. I didn't link it because I already employ that link earlier.  Ergo Sum  19:43, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I guess for us non-experts, we don't equate "tertianship" with "Jesuit formation". Personally, I'm not familiar with either.  The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:51, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I've added a bit of explanation right after the term.  Ergo Sum  02:35, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
 * You link prez of Georgetown after already mentioning the position...
 * If you are referring to the lede, I do so because linking president as opposed to Georgetown would be unwieldy in the first paragraph.  Ergo Sum  19:44, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * No, I'm talking about the end of the Gonzaga College section and the beginning of the Georgetown University section. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:51, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. I've moved the link.  Ergo Sum  02:37, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
 * "November 3, 1924 at " comma
 * Ditto.  Ergo Sum  19:44, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Looks like em-dashes rather than en-dashes in the year ranges in the suc-box.
 * Good catch.  Ergo Sum  19:46, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for you review. I believe I've responded to all your comments.  Ergo Sum  19:46, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I've responded to your queries. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:51, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Likewise. I've resolved all the outstanding issues, I believe.
 * All good, I've promoted now. Just FYI, adding a "ping" after the event doesn't seem to work.  I think you need to add a new signed comment to ensure it gets through to me.  Cheers. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:54, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
