A member of the Guild of Copy Editors, Can I Log In, reviewed a version of this article for copy editing on 04:58, 4 May 2020 (UTC). However, a major copy edit was inappropriate at that time because of the issues specified below, or the other tags now found on this article. Once these issues have been addressed, and any related tags have been cleared, please tag the article once again for {{copyedit}}. The Guild welcomes all editors with a good grasp of English.

Please address the following issues as well as any other cleanup tags before re-tagging this article with copyedit: This article does not contain at least 2 reliable sources that discusses the subject in detail and are independent of the subject. Not seeing that, this article may not pass the general notability guideline, thus at risk for deletion.

Reappearance

This article has been entirely rewritten to avoid the allegation against the previous version two years ago. I welcome constructive comment, as always, but I will not be undertaking substantial rework on this. If it fails Wiki's acceptability criteria, let it fall. It's not my loss.

I note that this article was written as a stub, but that another editor removed the stub tags. The original stub status is confirmed on this talk page - see above. You asked for further refs - I've given these as best as I can find them. I've also introduced Leo's status as an author and an authority control. I have not added a copyedit tag.

I really do appreciate you giving Leo van de Pas the treatment he deserves here on Wikipedia. His tireless efforts in the field of genealogy are still being felt today. Monsieurdl ^{mon talk} 16:02, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

I've compared this article with William Addams Reitwiesner's article.

LVDP is Australian, about 16,000+ bytes, has 11 references and an extensive bibliography. He created a reference website that is still available today. Authority Control via several indexes. His article is tagged for 'Notability'

WAR is American, about 4,000+ bytes, has 3 references, a limited bibliography and a defunct website (available via archives). No obvious Authority Control (now updated to include VIAF - but I had to do this). No such 'Notability' tag.

This doesn't seem consistent treatment to me. Please can someone spell out the notability deficiency as it applies to LVDP. Icairns 2 (talk) 07:50, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The original tagger was contacted and has removed his own tags. Icairns 2 (talk) 19:46, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Verification references

I've compared this article with William Addams Reitwiesner's article.

LVDP has 11 references over 16,000+ bytes and a tag requiring additional references.

WAR has 3 references over 4,000+ bytes including an archived website. No such 'Additional Citations' tag for this article - why?

This doesn't seem consistent treatment to me. Please can someone spell out the additional citations required as it applies to LVDP. Icairns 2 (talk) 07:50, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
