That was in the very beginning, when I was still too unexperienced with the Wikipedia-system. - Sorry. -- Bylot ( talk) 04:50, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
I saw this article has been recently listed at WP:GAC, and although I don't wan to commit doing a full review at the moment, I thought I would leave some suggestions to help improve its chances against the criteria. Great work so far!
Some specific concerns:
I hope these comments help, and again I'm sorry I wasn't able to complete a full review at this time. Best of luck during the GA review and just let me know on my talk page if you have any questions. María ( habla con migo) 17:27, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Please change all instances of Bobby to Driscoll, per manual of style guidelines. It doesn't matter whether he was a child or not. -- how do you turn this on 11:44, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
Before citing, the last quote, requested (Bosley Crowther - The window, 1949) I first have to pick it out of my "press-archive" on Bobby Driscoll, what may take a little while.

I don't doubt the references to newspaper articles are all valid, but the links all redirect to the same site (www.oyla20.de) with no apparent relevance. Wilus ( talk) 17:31, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Suggestion to include link to the song "Farewell, Never Never Land" by Tom Russell on his album "Mesabi" issued in 2011 which is a song about Bobby Driscoll. FlaviusHoratius ( talk) 02:51, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
March 30th is the day his body was found. He may have been dead for a while. Perhaps it should use "circa". Jason Quinn ( talk) 23:26, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
