Talk:J. A. Lindon

Birth year
When I was writing this article, I came across two conflicting birthdates for Lindon. Howard Bergerson's Palindromes and Anagrams claims Lindon was 54 years old in 1969, which would put his birthdate around 1914. In a Word Ways article from 2010, A. Ross Eckler, Jr. gives the birthdate as 1891. I assumed that Eckler, being a more recent source and with knowledge of the death date, was the more correct source. But I've just now received an e-mail from author Jim Puder, who claims that Eckler got the birthdate from an article of his, and that he (Puder) later discovered the date to be incorrect. So I've changed the birthdate to "c. 1914" and cited both Bergerson and Eckler for the birth and death dates.

If anyone can provide a more reliable (and more precise) birthdate, I would be much obliged. —Psychonaut (talk) 14:53, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
