British Newspaper Archive[edit]

I notice that you do not include author information for any of these newspaper articles (for example, in the Henry Hamilton article). Do *none* of them have a byline or name an author? By the way, we do not need to state the column, only the page number. I think it's simpler to omit it, especially if the name of the article is reasonably easy to spot on the page. -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:49, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I take your point on authors, but all the ones here are anonymous. Occasionally, a few snippets have noms de plume for authorship, but not here. Most of the old newspapers are broadsheet and very closely typeset. For fleeting but important refs, they are sometimes very hard to spot on a page. Others are big articles or the page is set in a more 'artistic' style when the column refs are definitely superfluous. But I guess, on balance, we can lose them - anybody that is desperate to read an original reference will be OK in sourcing the article! Colin aka Henri Merton 08:00, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. If no author name is given, of course there is nothing we can do about it. Just checking. Sometimes the theatre reviewers of particular newspapers are known (maybe from the masthead and initials or a pseudonym), even when no byline is given on the review. As long as you're looking out for the author name, that is fine. Thanks for doing the research! All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:06, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cingalee case[edit]

Great work on the Litigation section, but I left you a couple of hidden questions, which you can see by clicking the Edit tab in the article. Would you please take a look? -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:16, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, thanks for the edits and notes and I changed the flow somewhat as a result. NB The jury gave their verdict and costs very shortly after Anderson's letter was read which is why I said the jury had been swayed (ie overly swayed). Having moved the wit sentence to the previous paragraph, my instinct is that 'swayed' or similar could be reinserted. Colin aka Henri Merton 20:57, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done. -- Ssilvers (talk) 06:42, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

C. Hayden Coffin[edit]

Hi. Thanks for your edits to Hayden Coffin's article. I see that you added two cites to The Era (newspaper), but you did not give the title (heading). Often they used headings for these sorts of items, like "The Theatre". Can you look again? Also, please add the page number for each of those cites. Thanks! -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:05, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

See exactly what you mean. But nothing to do with me! Those edits are 'ancient' (3 Apr 2008) in Wiki terms and I just worked around the text. I'll look for the reference (it goes nowhere at the mo - try it!) and update it when I get a sec. Likewise I'm going to move that 'listen' down to the actual gramaphone link. Colin aka Henri Merton 07:40, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
