Interesting subject, but unfortunately lacks usable references. Five of the six references depend on The Times to substantiate the claims. But the provided links just go to a general Wikipedia article about The Times. Anyone could make any claim at all on this basis. So readers interested in for example the 1920 workers strike mentioned can't follow up to find the details - or indeed any third party evidence that this event even happened.
Obviously the problem here is that The Times puts much of its archive behind a paywall. But without these references being accessible there's not much point in having them for the online reader. Leaving the whole entry very thin. Istobe (talk) 14:23, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
UPDATE: Since the 1920 strike did happen I've added an external link to a contemporary newsreel clip from the time. But even here it's just a very brief clip. Most British Pathé / Gaumont / Reuters material is also behind paywalls, despite its age. The scarcity of openly accessible sources makes articles like this one hard to substantiate. I've also added a link to a community website which has some anecdotes from the life of John Lewis. Istobe (talk) 14:58, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
John Lewis Portrait
===================
Hi, not sure why I cant make my own thread, but I am currently trying to add a portrait of John Lewis in his article.
If anyone has a good photo and a good source, please add it. Spodogo (talk) 21:52, 5 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
