Hello! I have read this article twice and I find it to be very informative and easily understandable. It has a broad coverage of the subjects life, all sources are good as well. I would normally add a caption underneath the lead image which is a personal preference of mine, but since there’s no known date available for the image, I think we can move forward without it. I especially enjoyed the bit about the Lion, Wallace, the picture accompanying it is especially fascinating. I believe this article is almost ready to be approved for GA status, great job!

Hi @Orson12345, thank you for taking the time to review this. I have added the caption to the image as suggested, and also fixed a few minor typos I found. If you have any questions or further comments about this article just let me know :) Unexpectedlydian♯4talk‽ 13:37, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
@Unexpectedlydian: In the death section it states, “The certificate records his first name as Martino.” Do you believe that this was a mistake made by the official who filled out the certificate? Perhaps Martino was his real name. We can’t say for certain but possibly It could be mentioned in the lead section stating that his birth name might’ve been Martino.

Good question. The ODNB entry mentions that Maccomo's death certificate called him Martino. That is the only source I came across where he was called Martino (and indeed his gravestone says "Martini"), so yes it was probably a mistake made by the official. Not sure that's significant enough to put in the lead, but thanks for pointing it out! Unexpectedlydian♯4talk‽ 17:17, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
@Unexpectedlydian: No need to add it to the lead section, perhaps instead of “The certificate records his first name as Martino”  it could be altered to say “The certificate records his first name as Martino, though this was likely a mistake.” or something along those lines.

I don't want to write in the article that the name might have been a mistake, as the original source doesn't suggest that, and it could be construed as personal opinion. I have altered the text to bring out the fact that the name is different, let me know what you think. Unexpectedlydian♯4talk‽ 19:49, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
Perfect! I added a link JSYK. Also, I wish there was a better photo of Maccomo, I tried looking for one myself but came up short, what a shame. I read through most of the sources and they all look good, very interesting to read as well. The broad coverage of this article is up to standards, and all the images are free to use. I’ve read through the article a few more times and don’t see anything I think that needs to change, unless you want to change anything else, I think this article is ready to be approved, great work! :) Orson12345 (Talk • Contribs) 20:34, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
