Stanley Lees Giffard has been shown on Wikipedia since 25 Mar 2011 as editor in 1805 of the Morning Herald.
He did not go to university until 1807 and surely could not have been a newspaper editor in the year he turned 17.
Furthermore, there is no mention of the Morning Herald in either Giffard's own Wikipedia biography or his entry in the DNB.
Should the date(s) of his editorship be corrected, or should he be removed completely from the list of editors? Pwaldron (talk) 17:33, 10 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
