  1. S. J. Clarke Publishing Company. I recommended that the author puts sources in the second paragraph. There is lots of information that isn't general knowledge that is un-cited.
  2. Perth railway station, Scotland. Added comment saying that the opening paragraph needed to be more clear and specific.
