The Herald report

Latest comment: 08:37, 5 January 2020 (VMT) by Ingrid_B. · open

The article cites the Herald of 27 January 1918: “Kesselhöh Iron Company is founded at Sanding by Luise Thal”. Is there a second source? One newspaper report is thin for a claim of this kind. — peter.fenn (talk) 07:10, 30 December 2019 (VMT)

The Herald is the paper of record. That is what “of record” means. — Elke_G. (talk) 18:39, 1 January 2020 (VMT)

@Elke_G. Understood. I have added the full issue as a second reference, which is the same source at greater length. — Kerstin_of_Tarnmund (talk) 13:08, 3 January 2020 (VMT)

Fine. Nothing more to do here. — Ingrid_B. (talk) 08:37, 5 January 2020 (VMT)

The lead is too short

I have trimmed the lead. It said Kesselhöh Iron Company was “well known”. Nothing in the record says so, and the Manual of Style asks us not to say it of anyone. — AnnaMarrow (talk) 12:27, 3 December 2020 (VMT)

The register is the source. A sentence that reads like the source is not a fault. — peter.fenn (talk) 07:56, 6 December 2020 (VMT)

@AnnaMarrow, would you look at the new version? I have kept every word that was cited and moved them about. — Elke_G. (talk) 18:25, 9 December 2020 (VMT)

Infobox

The mark in the infobox is the version of the company's logo held by the register. The one on the building is different. Which should we use? — OBohm03 (talk) 17:44, 7 November 2021 (VMT)

I would leave the infobox as it is. Everything in it is cited. — AnnaMarrow (talk) 12:13, 11 November 2021 (VMT)

Fair. I withdraw the suggestion. — peter.fenn (talk) 07:42, 15 November 2021 (VMT)

Agreed, no change. — Elke_G. (talk) 18:11, 19 November 2021 (VMT)

Categories

Is Kesselhöh Iron Company best categorised by its seat at Sanding, or by what it does? At present it is both, which is allowed. — renate.dorn (talk) 22:01, 12 October 2022 (VMT)

Categories go to the most specific place that applies. I have applied the guideline and changed very little. — OBohm03 (talk) 17:30, 13 October 2022 (VMT)

Fine by me. — AnnaMarrow (talk) 12:59, 14 October 2022 (VMT)
