Paraphrasing?[edit]

The current and previous text is painfully close to that given in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography - there is little I can do about this since the article is brief - a -more detailed biography using other sources would solve issues relating to the similarity to the source.Prof.Haddock (talk) 03:34, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Riddles?[edit]

I also removed the Riddles book reference as it currently doesn't reference anything in the article (and is unlikely to do so ?)
