Talk:Helen Morse

Birth information

IMDb asserts that Morse was born in England in 1947, but other sources say she was born in Melbourne in 1948. Our colleagues at the French-language Wikipedia comment: "Helen Morse est une actrice britannique née le 24 janvier 1947 à Harrow-on-the-Hill (Royaume-Uni). selon certaines sources, mais beaucoup plus probablement née en 1948 à Melbourne (Australie) où elle est une actrice très connue." My French is rusty but I think it reports the 1947/England information "according to certain sources, but more probably born in 1948 in Melbourne (Australia) where she is a well-known actress." I've used the latter information in the article. The IMDb process is haphazard enough that finding such an inaccuracy there doesn't strike me as all that unlikely.

It seems IMDb was nearly right about this: the French certainly means what JamesMLane understood it to say.----Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 05:10, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

In regards to Helen Morse's birth year, I contacted her agents 'International Casting Service & Associates', based in Sydney, who confirmed her birth year details —Preceding unsigned comment added by SuperTriviaGuy (talk • contribs) 23:46, 2 June 2009

Unfortunately, that doesn't meet the standards of WP:V. We may have to emulate the French wiki and give both dates and birthplaces, with the admission that it's uncertain. You might ask her agents if their statement is published somewhere so that we can cite it. JamesMLane t c 01:16, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

I added a source with biographies of Australians, which says she was born in 1947 in England and migrated to Australia in 1950. It is a google book, so the link takes you to the page with her bio. --Prairieplant (talk) 17:54, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

I have just made this use /cite web/ and it displays very oddly but connects up. (Am not sure however if it adds much more to article on Morse.----Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 05:14, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
