Year of birth[edit]

The link to the Port Arthur museum has the year of birth as 1944. Does someone have a reliable source to verify the correct year? JungleCat 18:01, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know[edit]

I know this man in real life. He's my best-friends granddad. I might be able to get some information from him. 76.171.59.206 (talk) 03:44, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Space after the first period in the page title[edit]

According to most style guides, including Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Abbreviations#Full_stops_.28periods.29), you would not put a space after the period that follows the G in his name. So it should be G.W. Bailey, not G. W. Bailey. But someone just tried to change it to the latter, on the Major Crimes page, and I wonder if that's in part because this page is titled with the space, as in G._W._Bailey. Should the title/main URL be changed to match the correct formatting of G.W._Bailey? CleverTitania (talk) 02:26, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

For abbreviations, yes; names and initials, no. — Wylie pedia 00:38, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
