Comment: Created in userspace; moved to mainspace on 15 January. Deliberately not linking design history because the article is tagged and poor.

Interesting life and work, on fine sources, subscription sources accepted AGF. I don't think that a link to design is needed in the hook. How about an infobox. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:47, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Gerda Arendt (and double thanks for fixing my appalling typo! Embarrassing! In my defence, my "d" key has been on strike since before Christmas) -- I've delinked design, but there's now only the bolded link, and as I wrote, our design history article is in a dreadful mess so I'd prefer not to link that. I'm not a great fan of infoboxes, I'm afraid, especially here where there's not a lot to put in it (eg can't find place of birth nor the precise date) and no available image.
