Date of birth

Two different birth dates are given for the same person. 190.215.81.11 (talk) 04:56, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. Thanks for noticing.

encyclopedia.com, the source used for the lede, has 1868-06-02 for the date of birth (1865 seems to have been a typo, which I’ve taken the liberty to correct), while LoC and bnf have 1868-06-27. The latter two might actually have copied Wikipedia themselves, however, just like Wikidata did, which we’re now using to source the date in the infobox. Perhaps we should note both dates in the article, unless better sources surface. Cheers ✦ _hugarheimur 20:30, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
