• Right TRM - I've done the above (still doing a little ref organising). Thanks for the review. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:30, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Lee Vilenski let me know when you're done. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 09:39, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man and Lee Vilenski: I have looked over the references, and filled out a few dates and authors. I also found one duplicate ref. epicgenius (talk) 21:35, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for checking that one for me. It would have been a good couple days before I could have access to a PC to check it. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 10:16, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

yes! Sorry, I think I covered all of the above points Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:53, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
