Date of Birth[edit]

It says on Pauline's profile, that she was born on July 8, 1958 but if you see this link [1], it says she was born on July 8, 1959 so which one do we believe the one already on her profile or the one on IMDb??.

Hello! magazine agrees July 8, 1959 in biog.ref. www.hellomagazine.com/profiles/pauline-quirke/ [2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.168.42.11 (talk) 00:14, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article now says "born 1957". The Companies House entries for the Pauline Quirke Academy[3], under her married name of Pauline Sheen, also list her date of birth as July 1959, and I understand this is also referenced in her Desert Island Discs appearance (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0093nl9). It seems abundantly clear that the 1959 date is the correct one.

The only reference being given for 1957 reference is a FreeBMD entry for a different Pauline Quirke born that year. The FreeBMD entry for the subject of this article can be found at https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/information.pl?scan=1&r=219649433:0150&d=bmd_1627336144. That contains a link to a scanned image of the original register entry.

For that reason I am going to correct the date to 1959 and include all these references. Hopefully that will put a stop to the slow-paced edit war that's been going on over the last month. Waggers TALK 10:22, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If any more evidence is needed, there's this MSN article[4] talking about Pauline talking in 2019 "ahead of her 60th birthday". There are many, many more reliable sources pointing to 1959 as her year of birth than any other. Waggers TALK 10:34, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
