 * ... that French Napoleonic General François-Xavier Donzelot (pictured) showed his appreciation for the return of his library by the British, by reserving a seat at his table in Corfu for any captured British officer?


 * Generally, OK. Just a few comments:
 * I think the hook could lose the comma – it seems unnecessary.
 * Please use en dashes to separate ranges of numbers.
 * Footnote 6: remove the double periods.
 * Footnote 15: is "By" part of the author's name?

 * Could you please elaborate on the formatted citations? I used formatted templates throughout; templates are everywhere. I will check the rest of your recommendations. Thank you. Dr.K. λogosπraxis  18:50, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I have substituted the  throughout and fixed footnotes 15 and 6. Dr.K. λogosπraxis  19:16, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
 * As far as the comma after "British" I don't mind either way. Thank you very much for your review. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 19:21, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I meant that you needed to fix the things I mentioned in my earlier posting. Now that you've done so, there aren't any other citation formatting issues. I'll leave it to the DYK volunteer to decide whether the comma should stay or go. — SMUconlaw (talk) 09:13, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the clarification and also thank you very much for taking the time to review this. I also agree with your remarks about the comma. Take care. Dr.K. λogosπraxis 11:02, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * You're most welcome. — SMUconlaw (talk) 11:05, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
