Dear @Ken Heaton, per WP:NPOV, opinions should be attributed WP:INTEXT to their source. Please restore the attribution removed in this edit: , or rewrite the sentence to be more neutral. Best wishes, Perception312 (talk) 18:34, 5 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

I found your wording awkward to read, and I didn't realise the reference need to be substantiated in the body of the article. I've tried a rewording. Does this version work any better? Ken Heaton (talk) 19:11, 5 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

Much better, thanks! Perception312 (talk) 19:58, 5 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

Proper Name - Isaac Charles Phills

I am not permitted to make edits, so could someone please look at the most recent edit (11:15, 12 February 2026) to this article, and so the name listed for this person in the opening sentence of this article?

Several sources, including his obituary, ( https://www.nyshistoricnewspapers.org/cgi-bin/nnyln?a=d&d=prre19850320-01.1.10&e=-------en-20--1--txt-txIN---------- ) show his name as 'Isaac Charles Phills' or 'Isaac C Phills'. In contrast, only one source, from an earlier period (2 May 1918), shows his name as 'HENRY ISAAC PHILLS'. It appears to me the more recent sources, including his obituary should take precedence over the entry from 1918.

Thank you. Ken Heaton
