Did You Know A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on January 19, 2010.

The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that Captain Cedric Howell was awarded the DSO for bringing down eight Central aircraft in a four-day period in July 1918, including destroying five in a single action against ten or fifteen planes?
Current status: Featured article

Date of death: 9 or 10 December 1919?[edit]

There is a discrepancy between the dates given in different sources (9 or 10 December) for the aircraft's departure from Taranto and, therefore, the date of Howell's and Fraser's subsequent drowning. It appears from the preponderance of sources that the aircraft left on 9 December 1919 CET. This is the date given for Howell's and Fraser's deaths on the Australian War Memorial Commemorative Roll and Roll of Honour respectively. Other sources (eg"Air Mechanic G.H. Fraser". Sydney Morning Herald. 16 December 1919. p. 7. Retrieved 24 June 2011. {{cite news}}: Italic or bold markup not allowed in: |publisher= (help) and Cooke, T. H. (1983). "Howell, Cedric Ernest (1896–1919)". Australian Dictionary of Biography. Canberra: National Centre of Biography, Australian National University. ISBN 978-0-522-84459-7. ISSN 1833-7538. OCLC 70677943. Retrieved 24 June 2011.) give 10 December 1919 as the relevant date. If this reflects a difference in time zones then, according to the Wikipeda Manual of Style, perhaps the 9 December ought to be preferred, as the date and time appropriate to the place where the event occurred. On the other hand, I can see that - in principle - it might complicate age at death calculations not to use the same time frame as the person's place of birth.

Does anyone have any ideas? Todowd (talk) 18:49, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
