Ben

Hello Timtempleton,
Good work on this article, I had wanted to start it but never got around to it. I believe the nickname Ben is used predominantly when referring to him in sources. Maybe this could be included in the lede and infobox? --Brookford (talk) 09:58, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Brookford: - good idea - I added it. There's another Benjamin Clymer, a hockey player, and I was torn between using Benjamin versus Ben with a disambiguated title, but what clinched it for me is that Hodinkee uses Benjamin on their masthead. [[1]] I also added hatnotes to both to be safe. I'm trying to get a photo now. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 18:44, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Timtempleton: - I think you made the right call and thanks for adding it. Good luck on getting that picture --Brookford (talk) 20:27, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have italicized the titles of newspapers and magazines in this article. For reference, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Titles#Major works.
