Stupid cats (T-H-L)
Still a redlink, amazingly. Even though it's a well-known fact that stupid cats is a cats that is stupid!
I was noticing that. I think you should do something about it. Just make sure you put alt tags on the images and it will probably be rated a Good Article ™

Newton French Tolman (T-H-L). Certainly notable as a writer; I’m surprised Gerda A didn’t snag him as a musician.

I wonder if they have a Bertrand Russell’s Turtles (T-H-L) article.
No stand-alone article yet. They're covered in Turtles all the way down (T-H-L). Terry Pratchett's Discworld is mentioned, too.
An excellent example of how Wikipedia can aggregate the history and commentary on a topic like this. (I had logged in to point out the article, but then noticed rnu had got there first). It is interesting how much screen time the apocryphal "little old lady" gets.

Iain Oughtred (T-H-L).

Sad, that.

Burt Avedon (T-H-L). How in Satan’s Glorious Name Wiki missed this guy I can not imagine…oh, yeah, I think I can:
Burt Avedon: Let me just ask you a question: Having done some research on your publication, your audience is the antithesis of our company and our lives. Because it’s young, 18 to 35, as they say, and countercultural—are we anathema, or are we the contrast vehicle?

John Martin (Vice Magazine)Neither. I think that young people right now are very interested in anything related to American heritage, especially in regard to fashion.

Burt Avedon: We haven’t found that to be the case. We find that the youth are not at all interested in things that have long histories and heritage and integrity and all that. They are interested in reading predominately what’s new and what’s contemporary.

A remarkable woman, not in Wikipedia? Which is odd, considering her son is Tristan de Vere Cole (T-H-L), and her first husband was Horace de Vere Cole (T-H-L), a famous trickster and troll.

Lots of contemporary newspaper sources.

She was also married to Mortimer Wheeler (T-H-L), had an affair with Augustus John (T-H-L) and she shot Anthony Vivian, 5th Baron Vivian (T-H-L) with whom she also had an affair in the abdomen.

Edit: There is a biography written by Roderic Owen and her son Tristan de Vere Cole: Beautiful and beloved : the life of Mavis de Vere Cole
