Arkwright may be relevant to the history of technology, but I don't see any relevance to the history of science: why was the link to the wikiproject added? User:Noisy | Talk 03:07, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Siblings

According to the dictionary of natinal biography, Arkwright was the 6th of 7 children. I edited the article to reflect this some time ago, but someone has changed it back to "the youngest of 13". What is the evidence for this? If there is none, I will change it back (and add a citation). Carom 15:41, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
