Hello again, we were wondering if last few bits could be checked and added. Please see below, hopefully its okay.

1. AWARDS section: before "Hughes Medal" should be info that it's Royal Society award, so would be great if "Royal Society" be added.

2. OUTREACH AND PUBLIC ENG section: after first paragraph and reference no 17 would be great to add: "He increased this world record to 2307.8 volts in 2021." - see reference to this one here:

https://www.rsc.org/policy-evidence-campaigns/environmental-sustainability/rsc-lemon-battery-breaks-guinness-world-records/

3. OUTREACH AND PUBLIC ENG section, after second paragraph would be great to add: "In 2022, he presented an invited talk at the Brian Cox & Robin Ince 'Compendium of Reason' charity event at the Royal Albert Hall." - see reference here: https://cosmicshambles.com/words/news/what-went-on-at-22-compendium

4. PERSONAL LIFE, would be great to add: "He enjoys family breaks, films and indie music including The Smiths, New Order and The Cure." See references here: https://humanists.uk/2024/01/10/fueling-the-future-saiful-islam-interview-with-humanist-climate-action/

Thank you and have a lovely week!

Done I included 2 and 3,

Not done 1 is already included at the beginning of the article and the award sections. The infobox is typically to give a quick information and there is a link for the award of someone wants to know more, thus, I did not include your request.

Not done 4. is more of trivia, did not include as it reads like a trivia FuzzyMagma (talk) 20:44, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
