Talk:Fred Potts

message: Richard at Trooper Potts Trust has heavily edited the article and expanded its coverage of the Reading memorial and the activities of the Trooper Potts Trust. I'm somewhat skeptical about the new focus of the article which devotes more space to Trust-related issue than to Potts. We have more content on the design of the memorial than on the incident that earned Potts the VC in the first place, and more on events after Potts' death than on his life. That seems undue, even somewhat coatrack-y. Unless Potts is primarily notable for what others do in his name a century after his death, his life should be the focus of the article, with the posthumous activities to honor him summarized in a very short section at the end of the article.
