Archie Barwick

[edit]

Created by Rubicon49bce (talk). Self nominated at 22:45, 5 August 2014 (UTC).

I think the subject's name shouldn't be omitted without a very good reason. :*ALT1 ... that Australian farmer Archie Barwick wrote over 400,000 words about his World War I service? EEng (talk) 04:10, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

Alt is fine with me. Rubicon49bce (talk) 05:24, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
Sorry for the bother, but in the prose it says "approximately", not "over". If you change it you should be good to go. Nomader (talk) 03:49, 8 August 2014 (UTC)

    • Per WP:AGF, this passes. It passes DYK check (moved from userspace) and the hook is fascinating (that's a TON of words). Great work! Nomader (talk) 04:24, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
