 * As a start, can you work on the lede, it needs to be greatly reduced, and citations don't need to be present in the lead, it should only generally state the information in the rest of the article. The third paragraph should ideally be merged into the second. -- qedk  ( t  愛  c ) 13:55, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
 * , no problem. I'll give it another rewrite and come back to you. Blythwood (talk) 23:38, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
 * , I've been thinking about this nomination and come to the conclusion that although I've made major improvements to the article I just don't have the bandwidth right now to focus on working through a review. I'm still planning to raise the article to GA and have totally reformatted the citations, but I've realised that the article wasn't anything like as good as I thought it was, and there are sources that need to be in the article in more depth. I don't think it's appropriate to keep it in the review process indefinitely. Many thanks for your advice and help, though. Blythwood (talk) 11:51, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
 * No worries, feel free to start another GAN when ready, good luck! :) -- qedk ( t  愛  c ) 09:03, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Some more points at broad strokes:
 * Long and rambling captions should be replaced with succinct ones. (WP:MOSCAPSUCCINCT)
 * Short sections should be merged or expanded. (for e.g. Times New Roman)
 * Remove unsourced statements or source them (for e.g. It has not been digitised. in Times New Roman)
 * Fails MOSBRACKET in some places (fixed one of them) and refers to things like "discussed above" which are not ideal.
 * That's not a comprehensive review but a needed start for the next GAN. -- qedk ( t  愛  c ) 09:13, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
