Talk:William Wynyard (rugby)

Cricket and confusion between this William Wynyard and his namesake

I was in the process of creating the article on Tabby Wynyard and making sure that it didn't already exist. I read this one and found many of the biographical details were the same! I think there has been confusion between this William Wynyard and his uncle William Thomas "Tabby" Wynyard. It was his uncle that was born in 1867 and died in 1938, and his uncle that played cricket for Auckland and Wellington. I have removed those erroneous details from the article but haven't been able to find out more information on this younger William Wynyard -- such as when he was born and died. -- Shudde ^talk 12:03, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

I've thus added hatnotes to those articles, as the confusion may also arise with users of WP. Schwede66 18:48, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

I've removed the birth and death dates from this article seeing as they aren't sourced or mentioned in the prose. Mattlore (talk) 22:43, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
