I will review, comments to follow in due course. Zawed (talk) 07:20, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This looks very well put together, just the odd comment here and there Early life and education

  • and only son of father, William Alfred Penney,...: having father here seems redundant since you also identify the mother.
    checkY Deleted stray word. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 12:31, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The infobox gives the Imperial College London as an alma mater but Royal College of Science. Suggest amending the infobox for consistency with the text, or clarify in the text the the RCS is part of the Imperial College.
    checkY Clarified. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 12:31, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • He was awarded a PhD by the University of Cambridge in 1935 and a Doctor of Science in Mathematical Physics from the University of Cambridge in 1936.; suggest reworking this sentence so that University of Cambridge is only mentioned once.
    checkY Re-worded. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 12:31, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Manhattan Project

  • Rudolf Peierls recalled that: suggest amending this to something like "Rudolf Peierls, a fellow Manhattan scientist, recalled that:"
    checkY Changed as suggested. Hawkeye7 (discuss)
  • Joan Quennell to look after the boys: can a little context for Joan Quennell be provided? Was she a housekeeper or lab worker or some such?
    checkY Added a bit. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 12:31, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

British hydrogen bomb

Honours and awards

Other stuff

  • References look solid
  • Image tags OK
  • No dupe links

I fixed a few obvious typos as I went along. That's my review done, sorry this took so long. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 10:45, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The changes all look fine so I am passing this as a GA on the basis that I consider the article meets the necessary criteria. Cheers, Zawed (talk) 09:12, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
