I'll take a look at this shortly. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 15:14, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Prelim edit
- RAF Fighter Command and No. 609 Squadron RAF are duplicated links
- Article is stable
- Images correctly licensed
- Earwig reports copyvio unlikely
Lede and infobox edit
- Link flying ace
- Move Second World War link to first mention
- Link sorties
- "in the Imphal Valley"?
- Did Richey actually command 609 Sqn?
Early life edit
- Do we know the name of his father or mother?
- Link fighter
Second World War etc edit
- The Second World War is not explicitly mentioned until the last line of the entire article!
- "Shot down the same day after the engagement with the Bf 110s" does this mean he was shot down by the 110s, or something else? (ibid next sentence)
- Link Ashton Down
- Link engine coolant
- Not sure Bar needs capitalising?
- "was published"
- "with a posting to No. 56 Squadron" stipulate that he was in command of it
- "December 1942" repeated year
- Any operational history for No. 189 Wing?
- "He was subsequently worked" needs a rejig
- Burma campaign isn't mentioned in main text
References edit
- Refs 26, 27, and 28 have broken links
- Not required by any means, but it would be interesting to quote an anecdote or two from Richey's books to provide colour
- AGF on print sources
- Richey is listed in the template at the bottom of the article as having 10 kills rather than 11?

- @Zawed: Oops! I've been very ill recently, still am, and my fever-addled brain truly believed that it had already passed this. Passing as satisfying the GA criteria. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 09:18, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
