Hi WhiteHartLane, I just wanted to let you know that I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3AWhiteHartLane added] the "{{mono|autopatrolled}}" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers ↗. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled ↗. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Jenks24 (talk) 09:42, 16 November 2017 (UTC)

Bert James (footballer) ↗



Hi WhiteHartLane, I was wondering what your source was for this edit ↗, as, per WP:BLP ↗, dates of death on living (or possibly living) people cannot be added without a reliable source ↗. Do you have one that we could add to the page? Thanks. <span style="color:red">Canadian</span> <span style="color:orange">Paul</span> 08:16, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

> Added two refs - the first being the response received from AFL official historian confirming this as his death

updating BDMs etc



Hi WHL. You've certainly done a power of work in recent years in improving and adding info for the individual Australian Football player pages. Thanks !! RossRSmith (talk) 04:22, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Given your own interests in such matters, and given your connexions with the AFL, please see my comments at: Talk:Arch_Robinson ↗. Best, Lindsay658 (talk) 00:00, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

Eddie Fox



Hi WHL. Hope you're well. I've written an article Eddie Fox ↗ but have had a hard time finding birth and death dates for him. I know this is something you are great at find so I was hoping you would be able to have a look if you had the time. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 12:02, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

:Hi Jenks, the player was Edward Albert Fox (1864 - 1945) son of John James Fox (1842 - ?) and Margaret Mulcahy (1839 - 1919) and born in Ballarat. He was the second of 9 children I could find - six boys and three girls. His brothers were Patrick Thomas (Tommy), Daniel Joseph (Dan), John James (Jack), William Henry (Bill) and Francis Albert (Frank).
:He is buried at Coburg Pine Ridge cemetery https://www.gmct.com.au/deceased/1421275 which shows 14 March 1945 was his funeral service – so presumably death in March 1945 but I cannot find any newspaper obit. Could not find any evidence of a spouse - all electoral rolls he seems to be living by himself - occupation iron moulder. WhiteHartLane (talk) 22:34, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

::Thanks so much for your help, greatly appreciated. Jenks24 (talk) 23:22, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

The World Destubathon ↗


Hello. You're invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is over $3300 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning something to save you money in buying books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for subjects which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested. Even if you can only manage a few articles they would be very much appreciated and help make the content produced as diverse and broad as possible! ♦ <span style="font-variant:small-caps;color:#aba67e">''Dr. Blofeld''</span> 18:17, 15 June 2025 (UTC)
