924:- an unusual practice!). I have their permission to replace the sentence "The location of most of his negatives is unknown" with the sentence "Approximately 1,000 of Korman's signed 8"x10" negatives are known to be extant and are currently in the possession of the Korman family." The problem is, obviously, that this information is unverifiable. Are there any solutions to this problem?

As for proof that the "Approximately 1,000 of Korman's signed negatives" exist, I've spent several years scanning the negatives belonging to the heirs of Murray Korman. Due to redundancy of subjects as well as a few other factors, they only sent me about 600. The hi-resolution scans can be viewed at

Second question: I have seven more images which the family emailed to me with permission to use them in the article. As soon as OTRS vets the permission, I want to use one of them as Murray Korman's infobox photo, insert another into the text (it shows Korman's
Broadway studio with girls lined up to

I just accessed Korman's NY Times obit. The paper is dated Aug. 10, 1961 and says "Murray Korman, theatrical and society photographer, died yesterday of a heart attack..." Should we consider this the most reliable source and change his death date to Aug. 9? Re: citation, I accessed this through my

so that it encompasses the style that Korman used (and that he may in fact have invented many aspects of)? Or should we just clarify that Korman was not a "glamour" photographer as defined in that article? Or is there another solution to this problem?
727:
We have two different versions of the citation for this work, one in the text and one as an external link. Would someone please choose the better one? Also, if it is now attached to the text, should it still appear in
External links?
943:
We don't have a published source saying that a thousand negatives exist, so we should not assert that fact. However, we can intelligently remove the assertion that almost none exist, and thus become silent on the

Lillian Kodak. This image can be used as the main Korman infobox image if it is uploaded with a

URLs are handy and they help settle arguments, but they are not required on
Knowledge. Printed sources are still acceptable references even if they are not digitized.

The newspaper itself is the cite; you don't need a link to a web-based citation. Leave the URL parameter empty and just cite the newspaper for the August 9 death date.
