 * Symbol question.svg Article is long enough, 5x expanded within 7 days of nomination, no copyvio detected, QPQ done, hooks are supported by inline citations to a book (accepted AGF, as it is inaccessible for me). ALT1 and ALT2 look most interesting to me, and this definitely deserves to be featured on his death centenary. I would request the nominator to add who Sewell is. You need to identify people by their profession when you state their views (and more importantly focus on them) in the article. Sainsf  (talk · contribs) 12:48, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
