Weak Keep. The improved version looks OK. Normally, I would have wanted to see more substantive coverage but for someone who died in 1919 the amount of coverage available is reasonable. In particular, ref no. 1 contains substantive biographical data[1]. There also seemed to have been an obituary of him in Popular Astronomy[2]. Nsk92 (talk) 22:38, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep based on the improvements made by Voorlandt. Edward321 (talk) 01:57, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
