Why the very detailed Library of Congress records?

They seem out of place; we don't have them in biographies as a rule. (Anyway, why not British Library? He wasn't even American...) 86.132.139.119 (talk) 18:37, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, so have converted them to use the template {{cite book}}. I took over as much of the Library of Congress information as I could but, inevitably, some was left behind. I have therefore included the original records as invisible comments. I can't work out the language of the first title. Also, the fourth title seems to be a collection of three works, the middle one of which is a reprinting of the second title. Perhaps somebody else who is familiar with the titles can clean all this up. HairyWombat 03:46, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He was born November 16, 1878 and died January 18, 1956.

Arnold Leese did not die in London; I believe he died at his Guildford home, in Surrey for sure. A Baron VennerRoad (talk) 13:55, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have checked BDM online. He died in South West Surrey Jan-March 1956, aged 77. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.106.141.87 (talk) 19:10, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Which year?

“He was also elected...in that year.” it reads in the ‘Move to fascism’ section. Which year? Boscaswell talk 21:14, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
