More detailed version

Hi folks,

I am very new at the Wiki Editor role so forgive errors here. As it happens I have been working on a very detailed page for Bradford Ropes for some months, based on significant research and which includes biographical information not otherwise available on the Web.

I am still working on the formatting of all of that but in the meantime I see that I have been recently beaten to line, as it were, by a brand new entry for Ropes.

I would propose replacing the current page with my material, while incorporating anything in the existing page that I don't have.

Would that be an acceptable approach?

Cheers, BB.

User:BallBearings I think you can copy and paste your version or the parts of your sandbox over or into this entry. Their version is here. One issue however is I am not seeing citations for where the contet you wrote is from? FloridaArmy (talk) 11:18, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I have a ton of stuff including certificates but was told in no uncertain terms by a very curt 'editor' that I am not allowed to cite it as it is considered personal research. BallBearings (talk) 13:48, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Photo?

It would be most helpful if a photograph could be found of this writer. I can't find a single image on the net. Aldiboront (talk) 18:42, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, check those on the cover of the recent book Greasepaint Puritan by Maya Cantu. I expect they are of BR. If so, those are the first and only photos of him that I have ever found. BallBearings (talk) 13:50, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
