Original sites

Is it possible to give a more specific location that a "site on Goldhawk Road, Hammersmith, West London". Where on Goldhawk Road, please? Standard wiki location links would be most useful. Many thanks if you can . P.r.newman (talk) 19:19, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Answered my own question (I was born there FWIW) and updated the article today. p.r.newman (talk) 15:59, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wine auction

Not worthy of comment in the main article, but perhaps of interest to passing researchers, might be an auction by Messrs. Christie, Manson & Woods on 12 April 1937, “of Rare Wines & Liqueurs, Generously presented for Sale for the Benefit of “The Funds of Queen Charlotte’s Hospital”. The list of Donors starts with "His Majesty King George VI. When Duke of York”, then “His Excellency the French Ambassador”, then “His Excellency the German Ambassador”.

Lot 105, “Presented by His Majesty King George VI when Duke of York” was “One bottle of Port, Donna Antonia Reserva, A. A. Ferreira, 1840”, sold at £3.10s. (My pictures 22573-81.) JDAWiseman (talk) 18:51, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notable staff

I noticed Alice Blomfield in the notable staff list, but the subject lacks an article and the sources provided here do not make me comfortable that GNG would be met for a standalone article. This looks like borderline original research to me? @ELMatronmaker: who looks to have added the material in October 2022. Espresso Addict (talk) 22:10, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, all matrons are notable staff because they are so essential to the smooth running of patients care in hospital. From memory Blomfield ran the nursing department for several years. This was at a time of significant changes in healthcare, and the professionalization of nursing and midwifery. Women , and therefore nurses are often hidden from history because they weren't written about. The borderline research you mentioned is my PhD. I will revisit the entry.

Women are severely underrepresented on Wikipedia- currently about 20%. I am part of the RCN nurses in red project, and we are trying to redress the balance. I have agreed with our expert a Wikimedian who I add to pages.

Many thanks for your interest in Blomfield. ELMatronmaker (talk) 08:40, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

HI, apologies, my thesis was not on there, so I have added, but there are many published sources showing her notability and how impactful she was. ELMatronmaker (talk) 10:09, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello ELMatronmaker -- I realised after I left this that you were a member of a Women in Red subgroup. Unfortunately unpublished PhD theses are not generally accounted sufficiently reliable sources by most editors (I don't actually agree with this, but such is the case) -- has this research been picked up anywhere else that might count as a secondary in-depth source? Also there's a bit of a difference between (possibly partial) lists of all high-level staff with their dates of service, and "Notable staff" which generally is used to mean people with Wikipedia articles (or clearly deserving of one) who worked at the institution. (The second entry for Elsie Knocker is clearly of the latter type.) Espresso Addict (talk) 19:25, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
