Claude E. Welch Jr.

Hello there. Your greatly expanded version of Claude E. Welch Jr. contains large quantities of text that seemly have no references, or they are referenced at the bottom. WP:BLP gives any editor a free hand in immediately removing unreferenced content from a article about a living person, or where there may be a reference, but it is not placed in-line to show that the assertion can be verified by X exact reference (you have a few refs at the bottom lying around, can they be added as inline references?). In addition I have fixed an admitted pet hate of mine: section headers Formatted Like This, MOS:HEAD dictates that all section headers should be in sentence case. Thanks, !dave 15:34, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi "dave" and thank you for quickly pointing out how I need to edit the entry. I have noted that section headers are all sentence case! I will go into the article now to identify unreferenced material and to check if I have references for some of them. I appreciate so much your comments and help!

Hi from the Teahouse. I've left a few extra thoughts there for you to consider, too. Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 19:37, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

How to address alert: "Reads more like a story than an encyclopedia (August 2014)

Hi everyone, and thank you for guidance on editing. I am looking at Claude E Welch because I worked on his son's (Claude E Welch Jr) page. I see that in August 2014 the article was tagged as having multiple issues. I corrected the orphan issue, but I do not know how to handle the "reads more like a story than an encyclopedia entry." It seems fine to me, but of course I would not delete the issue without asking for advice.Janetaliaferro68 (talk) 18:08, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
