@Whispyhistory: QPQ done. Article is long enough and created 7 days before DYK nomination. Article is presentable and copyvio-free. Hook is interesting and well-sourced. Article has an issue with sourcing: there is an unsubstantiated claim in the lede that is not mentioned anywhere else in the article. Once this is fixed, the nomination can be approved.

Year of birth
editHi Whispyhistory, thanks for another interesting bio. The article has his year of birth as both 1874 and 1876. Refs and a Google search also have a mixture of those years. Eg fn 3 and here. The two refs (fn 1 Royal College of Physicians and fn 2 RCP Munk's Roll) used in Early life section to verify the year have 1876. It's a mystery with all being high quality sources. Do you have access to his mentioned autobiography? JennyOz (talk) 08:07, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
