Picture of Plaque edit

The legend to the picture of the memorila plaque should carry a date when the plaque was erected, so that nobody mistakenly thinks that it was erected shortly after Nash's death. Is 2007 the correct date? If it was erected by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust it would also be helpful if that was made clear. Sceptic1954 (talk) 12:14, 8 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

This is not a plaque according to wikipedia definition https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commemorative_plaque "A commemorative plaque, or simply plaque, is a plate of metal, ceramic, stone, wood, or other material, typically attached to a wall, stone, or other vertical surface, and bearing text or an image in relief, or both, in memory of one or more persons, an event, a former use of the place, or some other thing. A monumental plaque or tablet commemorating a deceased person or persons, can be a simple form of church monument. " This http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=pv&GRid=29639853&PIpi=12706726 gives a better idea. I think this illustration should be deleted and replaced by one of the gravestone itself.

– No primary topic. This person is clearly ahead in pageviews over the other two articles titled "Thomas Nash", but still gets under 50 pageviews per day. This is substantially less than Thomas Nashe - and contemporary sources such as [1] refer to him as "Nash". Google search gives a clothing brand of Debenhams as the most common result, along with a few contemporary doctors, lawyers, athletes, etc.; this is not an uncommon name.

  • Support per nomination. There are nine men listed upon the Thomas Nash (disambiguation) page with no indication that Shakespeare's in-law, who was not even independently notable, overwhelms the combined renown of the remaining eight men. It should be also taken into account that, during the Elizabethan era, the surname "Nash" was frequently rendered as "Nashe" per above-mentioned playwright Thomas Nashe and per subject's epitaph under Thomas Nash#Death. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 04:04, 7 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
