Governor Flag

The flag shown is incorrect (see Talk:Flag of the Governor of Southern Rhodesia) Mjb1981 (talk) 13:57, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

I have removed the incorrect governor's flag and replaced it with the official flag of Rhodesia at that time.

Date of death

It is very clear from our own external link (Peterhouse Nostalgia), and from obituaries published in November 1990, that he died on Monday 5 November 1990. Where the heck did this 14 March date come from? -- Jack of Oz ^{[your turn]} 23:25, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Doing a little sleuthing, it seems to have come from this unsourced edit of 1 November 2008 by unregistered user 121.216.213.171. It's just been accepted as fact ever since (including on zillions of WP mirrors), despite there being not only no basis for it, but also being contrary to our own sources. WP works really well sometimes. -- Jack of Oz ^{[your turn]} 23:40, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Refer author Susan Gibbs (Daughter-in-Law) in 'Call of the Litany Bird', (April 2011, ISBN 978-1-907991-00-4 Loose Chippings Books www.loosechippings.org), date of death given as March 1990. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.148.12.7 (talk) 02:31, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
