Article shortcomings

This article had inappropriate honorifics (MOS:HONORIFIC), a great many repeated links (WP:REPEATLINK), and uses very long personal titles repeatedly and unnecessarily (e.g., giving fullest possible titles, dates of rulers, and cause of death ("KIA") every time they are mentioned (e.g. "the 9th Ruler of Kuwait H.H. Sheikh Salim Al-Mubarak Al-Sabah (reign: 1917–1921)"; "cavalry commander H.E. Sheikh Jaber Abdullah II Al-Sabah II Al-Sabah (1860–1920) †"). These are mostly issues of form. The text is supported by a single source close to its subject, which casts its impartiality into doubt, an issue of substance. Some of these issues have been partially addressed, but they all need resolving properly. Pol098 (talk) 10:38, 9 March 2014 (UTC) I have corrected some of these things, but the faulty text has been reinstated. The article's single source was referenced separately, identically, 17 times; I have corrected that twice, combining them into a single named reference cited 17 times, and it has been replaced by the long list of identical references twice. Others have intervened here, for example, splitting the long list into two columns, slightly better, but not as good as combining them all. Pol098 (talk) 22:46, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
