[edit]

You added [[Richard Doyle]] to List of Old Rugbeians, but that links to the page Richard Doyle, which in this case is a disambiguation page for all the Richard Doyles. I've edited this to [[Richard Doyle (author)|Richard Doyle]], which links to Richard Doyle (author) but appears on the page as Richard Doyle. Regards, Xn4 23:34, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Please verify statements about heir, particularly about recent ending of relationship which is *not* usually the subject of Wikipedia articles AFAIK, unless the other party is very well-known. I know about the daughter, but she should also be referenced (Burke's Debrett's, exact pages; also reports in British newspapers).

I've also made a note at the talk page for the article.

Thank you very much. wikibiohistory (talk) 01:20, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
