His precise date-of-birth is not known, but thought to be between 1 Jan and 23 Jan 1849. Because he died in the month of February (in 1917), I provided a January date for calculating his age at death, thereby correcting that from 67 to 68 years old. current Tag: 2017 wikitext editor

WHY: As a verb, compliment means to make a remark of admiration, whereas complement means to add something different to complete the whole, with the latter meaning intended. That meaning is predicated on them not having the same skillset, and 'skillset' must therefore be pluralized. Note: The cited source avoids these issues altogether by not using either word.
