  • QPQ = Allan Randall Freelon
  • Very cool! Long enough, new enough, neutral, no copy vios, referenced, QPQ done. I've added a hook fact citation so that it appears on a relevant sentence. However I would strongly prefer using her actual name in the hook (see ALT1) rather than anonymizing her. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 01:05, 3 April 2015 (UTC) Thanks. I have modded the hook as you suggest Victuallers (talk) 11:02, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
Having just re-read the guy's wiki-biography then I would feel uncomfortable about that. I read his story as a human being caught up in (bad) events not of his choosing. Qian spoke up for his humanity and I'd like to respect her opinion. Victuallers (talk) 18:58, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
