Typo? You wrote "quarrer" you mean "quarrel" correct?

Biggest upfront issue is the WP:LEAD does not meet the GAN criteria.

Side questions - My textbooks and material is lacking, but I believe he was seriously ill in 1886. Any information on this? Also, I found some records of his exposition in the United States - where St. John's Night and Wernyhora were displayed. Any interest? ChrisGualtieri (talk) 01:15, 8 August 2014 (UTC)

All should be fixed (except I cannot find the wrong disambig, could you fix it?). Let me know if anything remains or what you think should be added to the lead. I don't recall anything major from 1886; I checked the PSB and it doesn't discuss any major illness in that year. That said, in the last few years of his life his health was steadily deteriorating, through this tends to be normal considering his age. If you found any complementary material, I'd suggest adding it to external links (or at least here), I can always review it.

I checked it through again and made a few changes for the determiner and a tense fix. The last tiny correction was "a honorary" to "an honorary" - as per that grammatical rule because it has an initial vowel sound. Passing the article now. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 16:04, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
