DYK for Walker Keith Baylor

On 18 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Walker Keith Baylor, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Walker Keith Baylor, a strong believer in phrenology and physiognomy, determined the fitness of political candidates by measuring their faces and heads with a tape measure? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Walker Keith Baylor. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Walker Keith Baylor), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

What to do when the sources are so confused? See my change where I fixed a word in a quote, because a number of other sources had 'persevere'. Then checking further, I saw your cite (as transcribed, would love to see) really did have 'preserve'. Then I found other sources had either of those, or even worse, 'presevere'! I reverted my change, as you quoted your source correctly, but I have grave doubts about most of these sources. Shenme (talk) 01:13, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

Shenme, what is your reasoning for these "grave doubts"? Aneirinn (talk) 02:39, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
