Date of birth edit

Note the date of birth added to this article was added by an IP address user - User talk:65.184.192.172 - without as source. The user subsequently identified the source in an edit summary on the Alex Kerr (loyalist) page as being "Important people in the Troubles" by Arthur Stone- Franklinson, page 34. This book is not listed in the catalogue of either the British Library or the Library of Congress and the user has ignored all attempts to open communication about this issue whilst also consistently ignoring the one revert rule applied to all articles related to the Troubles from this judgement. I am noting this here as I would face sanctions for ignoring this judgement but users should be aware that the date is not reliably sourced. Keresaspa (talk) 17:15, 3 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Now sourced from Smyth's own book and, surprise, surprise, the "Important people in the Troubles" version was a load of WP:BOLLOCKS. Keresaspa (talk) 17:40, 8 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
