Images

  • Looks fine.

Sources

  • Ref 23, no link and needs an access-date?
    • I retrieved that through my university's database (and, if I recall, specifically through ProQuest), which can't be linked to (since the whole network is password protected). And since its an archived version of a print copy and there's no link to maintain, there is no point in adding an access-date.
  • Does that means that the rest of the refs in this source review are also archives in ProQuest? Cheers. CPA-5 (talk) 14:39, 21 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • I have just finished adding access-dates to all of the sources I retrieved from normal links online. The rest have come from ProQuest or other databases as archived copies. -Indy beetle (talk) 21:28, 21 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
