Assessment completed for R. D. Fitzgerald[edit]

As per either a recent request at or because this article was listed as fully or partly unassessed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/Assessment I have just now completed a rating of the article and posted my results to this page. Those results are detailed above in the template box. Unfortunately, due to the volume of articles that need to be assessed, I am unable to leave detailed comments other than to make the following brief observation: good stub article - list of poems or works/anthology will assist to raise to start class and beyond

However if you have specific questions, please write to me on my talk page and as time permits I will try to provide you with my reasoning. Please put my talk page on your watchlist if you do ask such a question because in the case of these responses I will only post my answer underneath your question.

ALSO if you do not agree with the rating you can list it in the "Requesting an assessment section", and someone will take a look at it.--VS talk 23:45, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FitzGerald or Fitzgerald[edit]

There seems confusion about the spelling of his surname. Of our two sources, this one hopelessly mixes up his Fitzgeralds and FitzGeralds. The title of the page is “R. D. FitzGerald”, but he starts out “R D Fitzgerald”. Later on, "Critical judgements on Fitzgerald have been mixed ...", followed shortly thereafter by "No doubt the reputation that FitzGerald enjoyed ...".

The other source calls him FitzGerald throughout.

ADB refers to him (see last line) as FitzGerald.

Virtually all his other appearances on Google are as FitzGerald. Our article calls him FitzGerald in the text, but the title is Fitzgerald.

I’d like to move the page to correct the spelling to FitzGerald but the system won’t let me. -- JackofOz (talk) 09:07, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]


The correct spelling is FitzGerald (ie capital G) I know this as he was my grandfather. cheers! Matt —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.2.218.145 (talk) 05:41, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
