Date of birth

The first two refnotes give source titles "... 1938-2013" and "... 1942-2013", publisher ACBL for both. Neither one is handy for me to check. Last week I changed the article to say "1938 or 1942" and I put it in Category:Year of birth uncertain. --P64 (talk) 22:05, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

On page 78 of the Biographies and Results CD of OEB 7, it states 1942 in the brief bio on Cappelletti. OEBs 4 through 6 state the same. OEBs 2 and 3 state 1938. OEB 1 does not list Cappelletti. I think it reasonable to conclude that the most recent editions of the OEB are likely to be the most accurate and should be referenced and the others ignored as superceded.

Thanks. The one-year-old obituary bridge column by Phillip Alder supports that, specifying age 71. "Bridge: Michael Cappelletti and His One-No-Trump Opening" By PHILLIP ALDER Published: November 20, 2013 --P64 (talk) 19:57, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
