FYI: Unless you have sources to back any proposed changes to this Profile, do not make any changes. And if you do make changes, site your primary sources or they will be rejected. Also, if you do not understand why the British use the spelling of Wallace for one person and Wallis for another, then do not change his middle name back to Wallis.
