Winston Churchill as writer ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Winston Churchill's career as a writer may not be the first thing people remember about him, but it was a significant part of his life. It ran from his early years as a soldier to well past his political retirement and paid for his nice pad at Chartwell and his expensive tastes in brandy and cigars. This list has been expanded and brought into line with good standards, and the text now adequately supports and explains the background to those lists. Any and all comments are very welcome. – SchroCat ( talk) 21:03, 19 April 2016 (UTC) reply
Overall looks like a good list with the caveat that I know nothing about the subject.-- JFH ( talk) 22:00, 6 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Support: My knowledge of Churchill is limited to the little I remember from high school and that (mis?)portrayal of his in The King's Speech. Despite my ignorance, I find this list to be quite illuminating with the added distinction of being skillfully arranged. Just one point from me. The lead mentions that he won the Nobel for his numerous published works, especially his six-volume work The Second World War. I don't see the second part of that statement either mentioned or cited in the main body. Are we saying that because these compilations were his most popular?

Really well done, especially the prose. I would be glad to support after my comments have been responded to. Thanks, « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 04:21, 11 June 2016 (UTC) reply
Source review – The source links are all working and the references are reliable throughout. There wasn't too much that I could spot-check as most of the references are to print sources, but I looked at numbers 1 and 28 and those turned up fine. There were a few small formatting issues that I found, though:
Support – An interesting list with a few minor quibbles:
