Gentleman's Magazine

[edit]

Since someone chose--without giving a reason--to revert my edit about Robinson's editorship of the Gentleman's Magazine, I quote here from the January 1907 issue (p 195), under the heading "Sylvanus Urban's Notebook":

"Since notes under this heading were last written, the death has been recorded of the Editor of the GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE. Mr Fletcher Robinson had held the appointment only a few weeks; indeed, the January number was the first which should have shown his handiwork."

B — Covers major aspects of his life, lead summarises some parts of him and inline citations are good. Heading towards GA status... needs a longer more detailed lead. I'd suggest having an intro paragraph about who/what he is, birth location etc and death then have a second paragraph about the history of his career. A neater format for externally linked books would be nice. Try having a bibliography section, which lists all of these books (see Template:Cite book on how to properly format books and while you're at it Template:Cite web for all those inline citations). You could possibly use "notes" in the style of inline citations that scroll the page down to each book, but that's probably not even a requirement for FA status. Another small issue is picture alignment. You cannot have a picture at the start of a section that is aligned to the top-left. Either align it to the right or move it down a paragraph. Making it smaller would also greatly help and maybe changing the order of the sections, so that they don't flow into the next section. Anyway, hope that helps. If something I said confuses you, then don't hesitate to ask. Jolly Ω Janner 16:27, 24 July 2009 (UTC) JJ - many thanks for both your assessment and your very constructive comments.
