All blue links clicked to check correct person has been linked (will list errors below)
Other thoughts: tidying on layout still needed, possible a table is better. Any table would need to list "section" of award (e.g. Physics, Engineering, etc). And also the year, as several years have multiple awards. Need more background to the award, including who Howard N. Potts is, how much money (if any) is awarded with the prize, when the award was founded, when and why it ended, and any more details out there.

Stanley G. Mason (1980) is out-googled heavily by another Stanley Mason, who apparently invented the squeezable ketchup bottle. But here's a tribute from the National Academy of Engineering which could certainly form the basis for an article:

External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Howard N. Potts Medal. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
