edit- ... that
exactlyaround half of the Grade I listed war memorials in England were designed by the same architect (example pictured)?

- New enough, long enough, meets core content policies, image acceptable. The hook's cited to an RS, but there are only 12 memorials in the table, not 14. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 16:48, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- @Jakec: I'm guessing you got 14 from the Historic England piece, but there are only 12. Their search function can be ... interesting and their categorisation is limited, so some things show up as war memorials that shouldn't, and one was omitted because it wrongly categorised (I emailed He abot this and they fixed it).

- @HJ Mitchell: But if there are only 12, and Edwin Luytens designed seven (according to the table), that's not "exactly half". --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 21:20, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- @Jakec: Fair point. What do you think to the amendment to the hook? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:36, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
