Date conflict between sources

[edit]

The article text, and the Billiard Congress of America source, say that he became the World Champion in 1917, yet, the New York Times article already says in Dec. 1916(supposedly) that he was defending this title. So, we have a severe problem requiring research and cleanup, in that the most significant fact of his bio is off by at least one entire year, one direction or the other, between two reliable sources. It's possible that the BCA just has an off-by-one error, but the NYT archives are actually notorious for getting archival dates incorrect, and the PDF of their old article does not actually specify the year in the scan itself. So, this really needs to be sourced by at least two additional, entirely independent sources. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō Contribs. 09:17, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
