 * Hey, I'm guessing this is for TFA? I was hoping to nominate the article on the day Lord Goff was appointed to the House of Lords, which is in February. Had a chat with Wehwalt about it after he nominated it in September here: User talk:Kohlrabi Pickle. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 07:39, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, this wasn't a comment about scheduling ... I'm just making sure people know where the blurb is. (FAC talk pages are generally where the blurb info is stored.) February is fine with me. - Dank (push to talk) 13:41, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Superb, many thanks. I'm still learning the ropes... Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 04:08, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

Copying the blurb here and blanking my Sandbox/1:

Robert Goff, Baron Goff of Chieveley (1926–2016) was an English barrister and judge. He was the original co-author of Goff & Jones, the leading English law textbook on restitution and unjust enrichment, first published in 1966. He practised as a commercial barrister from 1951 to 1975, and then began his career as a judge. He was appointed to the Judicial Committee of the House of Lords in 1986 and was Senior Lord of Appeal in Ordinary from 1996 until his retirement in 1998. Goff long advocated a complementary view of the role of the legal academic and judge. The former Lord Justice of Appeal Stephen Tomlinson said that "no judge has done more than Robert to ensure that the views of legal academic commentators now regularly inform the decision-making in our higher courts". For building bridges between judges in the United Kingdom and Germany, Goff was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany (First Class).
