Denys Irving was a wonderful guy whose memory I treasure. But this article reads like a memoir written by a friend or relative, which is not appropriate for a Wikipedia bio. The use of "Denys" instead of "Irving" throughout is a giveaway. If these are personal reminiscences they don't belong in Wikipedia. If they are from sources, those sources should be properly referenced by in-text citations.Blixton (talk) 03:39, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. You are right. It has been written by a fan who has also written about Lucifer. I agree both are poorly written, overly familiar, and badly referenced. Unfortunately fixing them is quite an undertaking and would be best done by an editor with prior knowledge of the subject. It has been tagged so hopefully will be picked up at some point and addressed. Or if you want to have a crack, feel free.....you can get help from various sources if you don't quite feel confident about any aspect of it. Rayman60 (talk) 18:38, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
