moved article

this morning I noticed the changes but the name of the article surprised me. Then I noticed the complicated redirects. It seems to have to do with m- and n-dashes in the title. M-dashes in the title should be avoided.Taksen (talk) 03:14, 9 April 2022 (UTC)Taksen (talk) 14:42, 27 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thomas Hope (banker, born 1769) wasn't a banker, more a collector and designer.

Orphaned references in Thomas Hope (banker, born 1704)

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Thomas Hope (banker, born 1704)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Buist":

  • From Henry Hope: Buist, pp 1-17
  • From Hope & Co.: Buist, Marten Gerbertus (1974). At spes non fracta: Hope & Co. 1770-1815. Merchant bankers and diplomats at work. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff. ISBN 90-247-1629-2.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 09:31, 6 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
