- Image:JohnFoulds.jpg - Copyright owner is probably the newspaper that printed it...
- I'd like to see more sourcing, if possible. At the same time, I see how this could be an issue. At the very least, could you please inline cite the stuff in the "References" section - eg. say what facts in the article you got from those books, etc. That's the main thing before I pass this.
- "Incidental music for plays" - What does this mean?
- "Personal life" and "Legacy" sections need refs (books aforementioned?)

- Sorry, was very busy over the last few days and didn't have time to work on the article. Thanks for your suggestions; will renominate the article after I (or other editors) have had a chance to edit it. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 05:52, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
