Thx a tweet for you Victuallers (talk) 13:32, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Written Works"

In the intro paragraph, the last sentence states that Stobart wrote "several novels" (my emphasis) yet in the "Written Works" section only two are listed. By definition, two is not "several."

And why only two works listed?

Just commentingly curious. 2600:8800:785:1300:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 15:35, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

'She very nearly was captured..'(section World War I, subsection In Belgium)

I would agree that the above phrase is inaccurate. Stobart and her companions were in German custody that stopped short of being sent to prison camp or being executed. Might it not be more accurate to say 'She was briefly captured' (may add qualifying 'but' type phrase).Cloptonson (talk) 05:56, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
