Date of death
[edit]Do we have a citation for date of death? Vzeebjtf (talk) 07:40, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
From cemetery where Rooke is buried - Kensico Cemetery, Valhalla, Westchester County, NY. Minard38 (talk) 10:54, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you, but I'm afraid I can't find it there. Can you point me to it, please? Vzeebjtf (talk) 20:56, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
- I'm guessing that Information About Horses For Kids belongs to you because it features your photo. Below the picture is biographical text on Rooke that looks like it's from a document. Do you know whether the document is online? Vzeebjtf (talk) 11:35, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
I went to the cemetery in person to find that information about Frank Rooke's death - it is not online. The other information from "About Horses for Kids" (a website which does not belong to us) was copied from the Jay Heritage Center Flickr photostream without a source credit but is all accurate information about Rooke. Columbia University is doing an exhibit about Rooke's dairy plants for Sheffield Farms - are you associated with that effort? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minard38 (talk • contribs) 13:24, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
Columbia Exhibit http://manhattanville.columbia.edu/sheffieldfarms/content/about-project
- I didn't know about the exhibit. The online version is very interesting. Thank you for telling me. Vzeebjtf (talk) 21:31, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
- I am wondering why you added the banner? Vzeebjtf (talk) 04:58, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
List defined references
[edit]Please do not change from list-defined references, which have been established for this article, to inline references without first obtaining a consensus. Vzeebjtf (talk) 00:30, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
My apologies, I was trying to be helpful as the list format was very hard to follow once I began adding more citations to the body of the article and correcting links that were dead. It would be nice to get your article properly assessed as start class given Rooke's significance and all your efforts - seems someone questioned its relevance which is why I reorganized it a bit to emphasize how many extant Rooke buildings are landmarked. Do you agree? Will be adding an info box as well. Stay well during these challenging times! Minard38 (talk) 13:40, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
- I understand. Thank you for the improvements to the article. Vzeebjtf (talk) 16:16, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
You're very welcome! It's a great topic and fun to work on it with you! All the best! Minard38 (talk) 16:22, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
Do you know when the picture was taken? Vzeebjtf (talk) 20:12, 1 April 2020 (UTC) It is labeled with his name but undated. He looks to be in his 60s? Minard38 (talk) 22:41, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- A very impressive picture – perfect for the article. Vzeebjtf (talk) 23:05, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
