Comments

 * I believe the following images need a US copyright tag
 * File:Harold Macmillan number 10 official.jpg
 * File:Alexander Frederick Douglas-Home official.jpg
 * File:Harold Wilson Number 10 official.jpg
 * They are released by the UK government under an Open government licence, which releases the images worldwide. I think the present tags are sufficient. See here. —Cliftonian (talk) 07:42, 21 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Why/how is the image File:Muzorewa 1978 b.jpg in the public domain?
 * This picture, sourced here, is an image from the collection of the Dutch photographers Anefo that was released under a CC-BY-SA licence by the Dutch National Archives as part of Ga het na, a collaboration between the Archives and Spaarnestad Photo. It is tagged correctly as being under a Dutch CC-BY-SA licence. —Cliftonian (talk) 07:42, 21 July 2013 (UTC)


 * There are two references with Harv format errors: refs 44 and 145
 * OK, fixed—one was a misspelling of "Schwarz" as "Schwartz" and the other was a missing reference in the bibliography —Cliftonian (talk)</b></b> 07:42, 21 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Really well-researched, comprehensive coverage of an important event in the history of Africa. I have no critical comments on the prose - I found it easy to read and understandable even with limited prior knowledge of the topic. Thanks for your hard work on this.
