Size, newnewss, not a problem. Some apparent copyvio concerns, though. The sentence "Pallis was born in Bombay to a wealthy Greek merchant family" is attributed to source 1, but is found verbatim in source 2. Need to check more thoroughly to ensure the article is copyvio free. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:51, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

I've addressed the closeness of the language and tried to situate the references so it's plainer what specifics they are referencing. Gobōnobō ⁺ ^c 03:42, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay. This looks good to me. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:18, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
