Death sentence[edit]

According to the cited magazine article, which is linked on the web, Edwards was initially sentenced to death for refusing to serve in the British military. The sentence was later reduced, as stated in the article. An editor removed this information, stating in the edit summary that it was mistaken.

Agreed. Personally, I think this niche magazine isn't the most authoritative of sources - it'd be nice if we could find something better - but it certainly overrides someone's original research. Gordonofcartoon (talk) 02:01, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sure; I'm thinking there's probably a more reliable source out there that lists British COs who received death sentences where this could be confirmed or contradicted. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:15, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
