AfC notification: Draft:William Kennedy has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:William Kennedy. Thanks! Robert McClenon (talk) 02:33, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

context

usually reviewers know very little about the subject and are looking for what makes a good start page.

For a start we have

Trove - https://trove.nla.gov.au/result?q=leslie+gomm

and on trove we have wikipedia references set up for use -

• Gomm, L. J. (Leslie Jotham); Gomm, Leslie J (1935), Blazing the western trails : the story of the life and work of William Kennedy, pathfinder, preacher and pioneer, [L.J. Gomm], retrieved 2 January 2020

or if you prefer the facsimile edition: -

• Gomm, L. J. (Leslie Jotham); W.A. Baptist Home Mission (1991), Blazing the western trails : the story of the life and work of William Kennedy-- pathfinder, preacher and pioneer (Facsim. ed ed.), W.A. Baptist Home Mission], ISBN 978-0-646-06413-0 {{citation}}: |edition= has extra text (help)

It is always a good idea to look at previous/other articles for clues as to what helps an article clear the review stage... JarrahTree 02:49, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
