Interesting life, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. I prefer the original, as funnier, and you better know the person who died to find the ALT interesting, no? In the lead (and ALT1 if wanted), please clarify who the "he" is who died", or it reads quirky ;) - Waiting for qpq, mostly fine otherwise. - I suggest to just mention only the year of presidency in the lead, and to have "Censors" lc. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:30, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
Struck the alt as it becomes too long if more info is added. Philafrenzy (talk) 06:12, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
- I trust that you will format the bare urls in external links before it appears.--Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:27, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
