Talk:Richard Reiss

Article incomplete?
The article covers the period up to around 1920 very well, but after that all it gives is facts about his attempts to be elected to Parliament, but he did a lot more than that, Arguably his most significant work happened from 1920 until his death in 1959. He was a huge figure in the founding and development of Welwyn Garden City, the Garden City movement and the development of new towns during and after WW2. I'm collecting together some good sources to cite (and have already found several). I'll post a list when I've finished looking. I'm happy to help improve the article, but I am very inexperienced when it comes to editing, all I have done so far is correct some very minor facts (under a different account, a long time ago).

He's also noteworthy for his work in rescuing and resettling many Jewish Refuges from Europe just before WW2. There's memorial in his honour, specifically in relation to this in Welwyn Garden City Town Centre(amongst other memorials), I think this should at least be mentioned.
