Hello collegue, On the above mentioned article you added that it needs additional citations for verification, threatening it at the same time with removal. I disagree fundamentally. This is a perfect encyclopedic article, in the same order as it would appear in e.g. the Encyclopedia Brittanica. Under 'Literature' it gives even much more references than an ecncyclopedia on paper would ever have given. If this does not satisfy you, it would be my pleasure that you would add supplementary references and citations. But as well for me as for an interested reader, the article offers all he wants to know and where he can find references for further reading. Best regards. --Andries Van den Abeele (talk) 10:03, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Something went harmlessly wrong in this diff -- GreenC 12:53, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

Actually on closer inspection the edit looks fine. The summary said commercially- → commercially and there was no change to commercially so I thought it was a problem. But on closer inspection there is a "-" at the end of the first commercially which I overlooked. Removing the hyphenation is probably correct, it's an old fashioned style. The other changes (removing "_" and adding long-dash) they all look fine. -- GreenC 14:25, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

Infobox Judge vs Infobox Officeholder

Hi Captain Raju, I saw you made a change on Rene Leblanc (and a few other pages) changing Infobox Judge to Infobox Officeholder. What's the difference between the templates and the rationale behind the change? For reference, Richard Wagner's page uses Infobox Judge. Swil999 (talk) 10:50, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
