Comment: A lot of the content is not about the Institution of Locomotive Engineers and the main source used to support the content that is about the organization is their own journal which is a primary source and not independent. Also, some of the bibliographic information does not seem correct such as Steam Locomotive by O. S. Nock which was originally published in 1957 and I can't find a 1998 edition. I also suggest searching Internet Archive as it has old editions of Railway World Magazine and other publications that I think will be very helpful. S0091 (talk) 17:07, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Delete the whole table per WP:NOTDIR – just because we can list it (which actually we can't here) doesn't mean we should list it. Instead just list notable officers, i.e. those with *actual* articles, excluding those pointing to names within other articles or disambiguation pages. And as per previous comment, fix the external references and check they meet WP:RS. I would also add that it looks like steamindex.com is an enthusiasts page not a reliable source and that the journals reproduced there are copyright violations and thus we should never be linking to them as references. --10mmsocket (talk) 06:47, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Needs more sources to verify the information (esp the table). External links need to be made into proper references (see Help:Referencing for beginners). Ideally headings should be properly formatted, rather than just text in bold. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 20:35, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
