Deceased
He died last night, I can't find any sources yet but some should turn up. Rehevkor ✉ 16:04, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
- Just the one story I can see so far, but the Darlington and Stockton Times is a RS [1]

child abuse
why are all the references to child abuse left in but the description of it is all buried? Should be in the lede of the article. Notenderwiggin (talk) 21:32, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
Sources
Today I have added three references, all cited in the lead with details in the {reflist} and named for their authors Watson, Bennett, Chambers. I haven't seriously utilised them and they are promising. Furthermore, [ref name=chambers] is merely one excerpt among dozens that have been compiled at eNotes: "William Mayne Criticism"[1]. The "Introduction" is about five screens from Contemporary Literary Criticism (Gale, 1980); it looks promising so I have added that as one External link.
The allocation of material to the lead section and the rest of the article is inappropriate, but I haven't begun to change it, only flagged the need. --P64 (talk) 01:03, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- Evidently I am responsible for confusing The Oxford Encyclopedia of Children's Literature and The Oxford Companion ... in this article. I do not find the Companion online now but I recall viewing both entries for William Mayne while at work here. --P64 (talk) 17:02, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
