 * Reviewing
 * Article is long enough, new enough, appropriately cited and neutral.
 * I have done some minor rewording
 * Earwig shows copyvio at 35% but these are all related to names, so no copyvio issues.
 * Hook is short enough, supported by inline citation. It's appeal lies in invoking curiosity about the meaning of the word 'incunabala'
 * QPQ done
 * Symbol confirmed.svg A very welcome addition to history of medicine articles.
 * Comment: If it is possible to link 'Poynter lecture' to the list of Poynter lecturers in the BSHM article, that would be a further enhancement.Papamac (talk) 08:02, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
