Overall: 
The only missing inline citation is at the end of the first paragraph in Report on timing of a thermonuclear test. "Doing him no favors": reads a bit casually to me (perhaps unencyclopedically so). Ergo Sum 03:38, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Ergo Sum: Thanks very much for the review. I have added the missing citation (fn 18) and have reworked the material around that to better clarify what was initially in the verbal proposal. I have also reworded the 'no favors' text. Wasted Time R (talk) 10:39, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
