Service with the New Zealand Company
  • "In 1844" - add a comma   Done
Later life
  • "... but with the proviso that he would able to take on private work which did not interfere with his duties." This seems to be missing a word.   Done
Retirement and death
  • "By mid-April 1874" - add a comma   Done

@Zawed: This is a very well-written article which really draws in the reader. I found only nitpicky items to mention. Let me know when you want me to return to the review so that I can pass it. --Rosiestep (talk) 02:15, 3 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

@Rosiestep: Firstly, thank you for taking the time to review this article, it is greatly appreciated. I have fixed the three issues that you have identified above so hopefully it is now satisfactory. Thanks again. Zawed (talk) 07:50, 3 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Geographic features edit

I've had a look whether the geographic features section is complete. It wasn't and I've added items as appropriate. There's also Brunner Glacier in Antarctica, but that's named after somebody else. What I couldn't figure out was the name origin for Mount Brunner (Q31668132) and the Brunner Col (Q32142679) nearby, both located on the Main Divide near Mount Sefton. It's not covered in my 2010 edition of Place Names of New Zealand and I could not find an online source that elaborated on these two features. Does anyone know? Is this covered by Emily Host's book?
