Airlock date

[edit]

The article states "While in New York from May 1890 Moir invented an airlock chamber", yet the photo caption says "Moir's airlock of 1889 first used while building the Hudson River Tunnel in New York City". I assume he did not also invent a time travel tunnel.  :-J --SalineBrain (talk) 19:42, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

picture of David Lloyd George

[edit]

The picture of David Lloyd George, who is more prominent than Moir, (and has his own Wikipedia page where this picture is already prominently displayed), distracts from the subject of the Wikipedia article in which it is positioned, namely Ernest William Moir. A more appropriate picture might be that of Eric Geddes, or the Moir-designed pillboxes. In any case, the importance of being Ernest is relevant to this article's scope. --SalineBrain (talk) 19:55, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
