Missing[edit]

THE FIBROMYALGIA AND CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROM DAY IS MISSING, PLEASE CORRECT — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.97.41.133 (talk) 03:12, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it should be here. Awareness days - no matter how laudable - aren't 'holidays and observances'--209.128.15.129 (talk) 17:49, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Plz add this celeb![edit]

Hi. Please add Hossein Rezazadeh, Iranian retired weightlifter whose name is written in some Guinness Records.

Thanx. محمد اعمی (talk) 13:31, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a reference for his date of birth, and this can be done. Kiwipete (talk) 18:11, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Citation verification[edit]

Can someone explain why only 42 of the 266 births are cited? I tried adding in Malcolm David Kelley's, per his Wikipedia, but it was instantly removed for not being cited. The discrepancy is a little confusing. 96.245.109.166 (talk) 08:28, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Because there is an ongoing process of removing the uncited births. 10:26, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
I re-added the birth with a cited source. The same user reverted saying it was not valid under WP:RSPTWITTER, but the subject posted on their own birthday from their verified Twitter account confirming their birthday. Additionally the same citation was used for MrBeast's birthday on May 7 as an example. 96.245.109.166 (talk) 15:19, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Probably okay in my opinion but not according to Wikipedia:Reliable sources. Deb (talk) 12:29, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
