I am the subject of a page on wikipedia about Mary Birdsong- a living person. There is a photo posted on facebook which is attributed to wikipedia.org and that photo is not of me, but of another actress named Nicole Parker, with whom I have worked. I don't know how to get that photo changed or removed.
The page also mistakenly says that I was born in NJ. I was actually born in Florida. I tried to upload a photo of my birth certificate but wikipedia doesn't allow me to do that.
Any help with these errors would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! --Mary Birdsong (username = otisbird)
- Otisbird, apologies for the delay in responding. Something in the syntax wasn't right when you wrote this request, so the request never made a blip on the radar screen. Anyway, I made the NJ-FL change. I can't help you with the photo--if it's on Facebook, there's nothing we can do about it, BUT WAIT! Ha, there is a file called "Nicole Parker in 2006.jpg", and apparently it was misidentified; in 2010 someone corrected it and moved the photo to the right name. I'm going to get someone to remove the old name, which redirects to the new photo and probably still shows up in search engines etc. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 03:20, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
