I have made a start on this article, using readily availabe sources. Kipling is a writer about whom I have contradictory feelings. He has a wonderful style, both in prose and verse, as even the elitist TSE was obliged to recognise, and illuminating insights; but some of his attitudes (perhaps his underlying attitude - I do not know) are repugnant. Doubtless these views are shared, but I do not have enough information to reference them. --Martin Wyatt 20:46, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

He's been controversial for many years now -- go ahead and do your best! Hayford Peirce 03:51, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
