University Student Seeking Feedback

Hi there! As part of a university subject, I've been editing the article on R.J.B. Bosworth for the past few months. I'd really appreciate any feedback you can give me (on the article talk page or on my talk page) about the style and content of the article, and on ways to improve it. Thanks!
