Hi! On Saturday, I was "I'll save this, see if I want to review it, do the review, and then actually click the button to confirm I want review." Turns out, another user did a GA review in the mean time! I'm going to gradually go through my comments, and post anything unresolved.

In the infobox, you refer to Cameron as an Alderman. Was this the term used at the time by council? If so, why does it not appear at least once in the article? While most readers won't be familiar with the mostly abandoned term, it should at least be used once.
The 1914 Edmonton Bulletin article simply says Cameron "is a Liberal". The way this is presented in the article sounds like he was actually registered as a member of the Provincial and Federal Liberal parties, something we can't confirm with this one article. Just saying he was a Liberal is better, as he likely carried this ideology into municipal politics.
That's for starts, there more when I have the opportunity to weed my comments.  --  Zanimum (talk) 20:08, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Many thanks for the further comments. The things you've listed above are done! By the way, if you are interested, I have two other short-ish articles up as well! Connormah (talk) 05:49, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
