Thomas Olivers

[edit]
  • ... that Thomas Olivers was buried in John Wesley's grave despite Wesley's complaint that Olivers was "murdering" his magazine?

Created by Greenshed (talk) and The C of E (talk). Nominated by The C of E (talk) at 09:23, 11 May 2015 (UTC).

  • Length, date, neutrality, originality, QPQ, and hook verified. Online sources checked; offline source accepted assuming good faith. I really like the gist of the hook—my one concern is that "murder" is such a weird word to use about a magazine that there ought to be some sort of indication that it was Wesley himself who used it. I'm open to discussion if you feel strongly the other way, though.--Lemuellio (talk) 22:52, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
  • I have put quote marks around it to show that Wesley said it and it is not just wordplay. I have also reworded it. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 07:33, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
  • Looks great. Well done!--Lemuellio (talk) 12:51, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
