[edit] Parents/ guardian
If possible, I think it would be good to mention his parents and their profession. That information goes a long way in explaining someone personality. gathima 01:50, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Confict with Newton
This section really needs rewording; it's hardly NPOV with it's blaitent accusations against Newton. At least mention the reasons for the disagreement: Flamsteed was refusing to publish work that had been commissioned by the king. CFLeon 21:25, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
I'm going to try to reword it. IronCrow 01:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
- Reworded the conflict again, and added a reference. Sobel's book covers the material in this edited paragraph only, but I still removed the "unreferenced" warning. Wasoxygen (talk) 7 April 2011 —Preceding undated comment added 13:55, 7 April 2011 (UTC).
[edit] Delisted GA
There's no body, so there can't be a lead, so the article can't conform with WP:LEAD. This can probably be fixed easily because you have several paragraphs here, but also, you'll need more references to fully reference this article, and you'll also need inline citations, the GA criteria was recently changed to make them mandatory. And please, don't just stamp the page again without even appearing to of reviewed this article.... Homestarmy 16:22, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
