GA Review edit

Hello. I'll be doing he GA review for this article. Here are some suggestions for improvement:
- In the lead, I'd merge the last paragraph with the second paragraph to better comply with the length requirements at WP:LEAD.
- Wikilink dates with a month, day, and year: 27 August 1970 --> 27 August 1970
- Combine like references in the reference section. For example, 12, 16, and 20; 29 and 30; 14 and 33
- He had at least one kid according to the article. Does he have any others? Was he married?
That's it for now. The article will be on hold for seven days to allow for these improvements, and once they are taken care of, I'll add more specific suggestions. Nikki311 23:35, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- All done. Datelinking is no longer mandatory, but it should be consistent, so I've linked them. Strangely, though she is referred to indirectly, Barnes doesn't mention his wife's name once in his (ghosted) autobiography. From that book I have managed to find out that he had three other children. One of them seems to have once made a correction to this article! Oldelpaso (talk) 13:43, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
