I plan on adding in a biography section and I will attempt to find information on his early submarine designs. However, finding sources for this man has proven to be very difficult. His work is not well known and his biographies online are short and relatively bare. I will add in information about his life in Gravesend before his mathematical influence began. I also plan on going to the library on Monday, June 3rd to attempt to find more information. Nro87 (talk) 15:29, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There seems like there should be more information out there for this topic. Like I told Bakeore, you should seriously try going to the library and throwing yourself at the mercy of an librarian. I have used this tecnique in the past and they are all really nice and helpful in finding databases and even texts/books. I would also try to use the encyclopedia or maybe even military sources. The sub stuff was interesting so maybe instead of a biographical analaysis you could focus more on his works or sub things. the Canada tv show may also not be the best source, but could still be included in the final article if for example the picture or more sources can be gleaned off of it. Good luck. Boyd8420 (talk) 14:21, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
