Interesting life, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. - I like the first hook better than the ALT, and think it could end after Sidney. Who cares about the "first permanent"? - In the article, I suggest you check commas once more, - I think you have some too many but may be wrong. I am not happy with the last sentence of the lead: link the organization please, don't repeat "religious", and find a different word for "informed". I'd like a bit more lead, - not necessary for approval, but good for a reader needing an overview. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:13, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
