Priya birthday

edit

@Ponyo: I do not know, if this type of references are profitable for wikipedia (1 2 3), but for now I have found these, where sample the date of day and month of birthday. The year itself is 1986 as it is included on the main page as a category. --190.159.239.204 (talk) 18:32, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

The inclusion of the category is in error as numerous dates have been presented, none of which have been supported by reliable sources. I've removed it in accordance with WP:BLPCAT. The three links you included above are primary sources, which fall short of the published secondary sources which are preferable in these cases. Even if they could be used, they offer conflicting information; the first two are posted on February 18th and the third is posted on February 17th.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 19:10, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
I see you've been doing this for 6 years...
First is September, not February. Secondly the first 2 sources denotes that she added (in past tense, for his birthdays) for which it was the previous day. And third are not references to place the main page, mention was for you to realize, that the date 17/09/1986 is correct and not false. --190.159.239.204 (talk) 19:22, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
Yes, as a Wikipedia admin I have been enforcing our policies regarding BLP for several years; it is also one of the most pertinent reasons why the community passed my request for adminship. At no point in time should we need to cobble together sources or make assumptions when adding such information to BLPs - see WP:SYNTHESIS and WP:OR. Unless there are multiple sources meeting Wikipedia's reliable sourcing criteria explicitly verifying an exact date, per policy the date is not included.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 19:40, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
Instead of repeatedly adding dates you've pulled from random websites to the article, it would be helpful if you took the time to review this criteria as to what constitutes a reliable source.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 19:43, 18 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
