It is most disappointing to have a long string of templates added criticising a brief article: it does not stray from its topic, which is intended not only to be about the life of Lewis Paul, but about the application of his inventions. It cites (as further reading) all the material that I have used in preparing it. If you do not like what I have written, would you kindly take the trouble to do better yourself, rather than applying inaccurate templates to it.

It is bad enough having to write the same article twice, because a vandalising admin detleted what I was doing in the middle of my editing it to expand it. However I am leaving the templates in place; it is for critics to remove these not me. Peterkingiron 18:15, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I have deleted some earlier remarks by me which are no longer relevant. I have removed the unreferenced tag because my 'further reading' was in fact references and it is now described so. I have removed an 'off-topic' tag, as misconceived: what was missing was a subheading. Peterkingiron 20:49, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] birth date not known

Just to save anyone else looking it up, the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography does not list a birth date, and says that little is known about his early years. PamD (talk) 09:37, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
