Hoffmann vs. Hoffman

Please change the title of the article to E. Hoffman Price. I have corrected the name in the text. Thanks, Leeb7 (talk) 17:07, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but your correction is incorrect; the correct form is E. Hoffmann Price, per the standard bibliographic sources on the author. I have reverted the article to the pre-existing form. BPK (talk) 20:21, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally, I see you're working on a wikipedia article for Glenn Lord. Great job so far, and I look forward to seeing the posted version. BPK (talk) 20:36, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, I can see that now, having checked with the Library of Congress site, but it appears every other reference in Wikipedia but yours has Hoffmann misspelled! It's also often misspelled on Abebooks.com and Amazon.com. Leeb7 (talk) 22:17, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There were actually only about sixteen active links to the Hoffman version as opposed to about 40 to the correct one, and I've now fixed those. Two of the erroneous ones were actually book articles where the cover images showed the correct name but the article texts consistently misspelled it! Didn't try to search out instances where the misspelled name is in an article but not linked to. Task for another times, perhaps. BPK (talk) 00:45, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

E. Hoffmann Price is the correct spelling. Edgar Hoffmann Price was my step-grandfather. He had two children, Theresa and John Daniel Price. J. Dan Price passed away June 1, 2012, but Theresa is alive as of this date and lives in suburban Sacramento, CA. Theresa Price passed away in January, 2013. My father was Edgar's stepson. Thanks for a great article on him! Kirk S., smileyporkpyn@yahoo.com 8 June 2012 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.251.32.61 (talk) 00:30, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
