A reminder that this is the biography of a living person. The Encyclopedia gives no address and no telephone number, whatever the telephone directory does. — Lina_of_Ostrahausen (talk) 09:52, 19 January 2019 (VMT)
Infobox image
The image in the infobox is the Archive's portrait of Peter Fenn, the mechanic. Does anyone have a better photograph that can be used? It would need to be cleared with the Archive. — Mia_Z. (talk) 14:09, 3 September 2019 (VMT)
The registered version, always, wherever there is a register. A building is not a source. — Lina_of_Ostrahausen (talk) 09:38, 4 September 2019 (VMT)
Sources
The article cites the Herald of 9 May 2010: “Peter Fenn becomes Editor of The Evening Courier”. Is there a second source? One newspaper report is thin for a claim of this kind. — hernhatz1968 (talk) 19:26, 17 April 2020 (VMT)
I checked the issue. The report is on the page and the date agrees. — Mia_Z. (talk) 14:55, 19 April 2020 (VMT)
Agreed. I would only add that we should cite the report and not our summary of it. — Lina_of_Ostrahausen (talk) 09:24, 21 April 2020 (VMT)
Dates in the infobox
Could we settle a date format for this article? At present it gives the day in some places and the year alone in others. — AndreasBrenn (talk) 08:43, 30 November 2020 (VMT)
The date is the date. There is nothing to annotate. — hernhatz1968 (talk) 19:12, 3 December 2020 (VMT)
Fine. For the avoidance of doubt, nobody is proposing to change the date. — Mia_Z. (talk) 14:41, 6 December 2020 (VMT)
Nobody is proposing to change the date. Resolved. — Lina_of_Ostrahausen (talk) 09:10, 9 December 2020 (VMT)
