Herbert S. Sears

[edit]
  • ... that Herbert Sears' father ran a fish and chips shop in Saskatoon and he himself worked at a bakery before becoming the city's mayor?

Created by Big iron (talk). Nominated by Skr15081997 (talk) at 14:51, 23 June 2014 (UTC).

  • Looks OK to me. Created 21 June, length OK and hook adequately sourced. The article is referenced primarily to one source and does follow a similar structure to that source but I think that is unavoidable in biographies like this (where information is necessarily conveyed in a chronological fashion). In British English "fish and chip shop" is more usual than "fish and chips shops" is this a regional English thing? - Dumelow (talk) 07:40, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
  • Dumelow, this article is about a Canadian politician, so Canadian English has been used by the article creator.Skr15081997 (talk) 11:22, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
