Rationale for move

[edit]

The player's birth date was listed as 1910 in reliable book sources dating from 1995 and 2004, but in 2020, the equally reliable English National Football Archive website Player search Robertson, JE (Jimmy) (paid subscription required) was found to list a birth date of 1909 and death date of 1979. These years are consistent with primary sources: see birth registrations and death registrations at ScotlandsPeople (free registration required). cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:54, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I know we have only recently looked at this, but this discussion between researchers last year suggests the ENFA reference may be incorrect. Any info that may shed light on any persistent inaccuracies appreciated Crowsus (talk) 03:47, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
