Talk:John McCosker

From BR Bullpen

How confident are we in the birth/death years? Many times we're calculating so it could be late in the previous year. If its not 100% sure (and I assume its not 100% if we don't know month/day), the category "Births in/Deaths in" probably should not be applied. And I think that the year should be marked as approximate in some way (I use "~" to signify around said year). Jeff (talk) 21:57, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

Hmm, that's a good point. I'd just use the "~" and not include the year categories unless we at least have a month to go along with it. Gothy (talk) 21:59, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

We want to put in as much info as we can. Estimates are fine, as long as we mark it as such. We don't want to overstate our confidence in the information, if that makes sense. Jeff (talk) 22:04, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
