Toolbox checks

No dablinks.
FN07 and FN10 links don't seem to find their targets; not sure that FN11 is the desired page either.

Prose/structure/detail -- fairly minor ce, no issues assuming you're happy with the changes.

Image review -- licence looks okay.

No probs with passing as GA but pls check the links noted above. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 03:45, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I took a while getting back -- tks for updating the links, passing as GA. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 08:34, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
