Review of revision 2992113 [Passed]

Revision 2992113 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 19:23, 28 October 2014 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Everything needs to be verified from the cited sources; the exception is "obvious" things, such as "Paris is in France". It's difficult for a reviewer to verify things from sources if the reviewer only has an automatic translation to work with — automatic translations are really awful, sometimes getting things wildly wrong, and nuances can never be relied upon. I decided to allow the point about the separate ceremony being because of Sir Winton's health, although I wasn't able to find any source passage that I was sure said this. I also allowed the bit about the memorial in the railway station, although I believe that was not in the sources. I did remove some unverified details. Please try to provide trust-worthy sources for background info. Despite the difficulties, I enjoyed this article. The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.

Addressing a Knight

I'd just like to point out that it's incorrect to refer to the man as "Sir Winton". He's either "Sir Nicholas Winton" or "Sir Nicholas" - you can either address him by his full name or his first name, but not by his surname. -- 83.104.44.241 (talk) 22:43, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Interesting if true. This is a wiki; you could edit the article. --Pi zero (talk) 23:08, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
