Hello! the information concerning Getatchew Haile's date of birth being April 19, 1931, comes from Getatchew Haile himself. On October 4, 2019, I contacted Hill Museum and Monastic Library at Collegeville, Minnesota, by telephone and spoke to a librarian there named Linda Orzechowski. Ms. Orzechowski contacted Getatchew directly and was told by him that his date of birth was April 19, 1931. She then emailed that information to me. How should I document this so that it meets Wikipedia standards as a reliable source?Charles Joliet (talk) 18:12, 9 October 2019 (UTC) Addendum: I thought it might help to add this information: I am Senior Catalog Librarian at Saint Louis University and a member of NACO, the cooperative project of the Library of Congress for maintaining the Library of Congress/NACO authority file. I have added the information on this birthdate to Getatchew Haile's authority record, NAR n 79087751. I have often seen these authority records cited in Wikipedia pages. If I used this as the basis for my citation, perhaps that would meet the criteria?
