I'll pick this one up: it may be a day or two, but I'll be round to it soon enough. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 20:44, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]


  • A minor point, but do we have a pic of Pinsent where he doesn't look like he's picking his nose? Per MOS her should also be facing into the text, but that's a real minor thing I'm happy to overlook... - SchroCat (talk) 15:46, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Commons has a few to choose from but mostly you can actually tell it's him. If it's an issue, I'll remove the image, I'm not enamoured by it either... The Rambling Man (talk) 18:23, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • It's not an issue, and I'll spin the image to have him facing inwards: the article needs a splash of colour in a picture, and Pinsent is one of the better known British sportsmen, so it's right he's in there. - SchroCat (talk) 20:53, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        • Ok, cool. I guess a close crop to avoid the nose-picking would be too close? The Rambling Man (talk) 21:02, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
