[edit] Citation needed for her birthdate?
Cote de Pablo's birthdate is listed the same as on IMDb. For some strange reason, someone tagged this entry as needing a citation. She is listed as graduating with a degree in 2000. If you do the math (2000 - 1979 = 21), Cote would have graduated at just about the right age for a normal person.
- Please sign your comments. Unless there is some reason to dispute the age, then there's no need for a citation as most biographical articles don't do this. If someone can provide evidence that there is some dispute over her birthdate, then that's another matter, as there are people whose birthdates are disputed (Humphrey Bogart is one example). Otherwise such information is usually pretty cut-and-dried. 23skidoo 16:41, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
- A few days ago, this article had no date of birth listed, just the year which was shown as 1979. I couldn't find the age listed anywhere on the internet so I added this page to the category for 'Date of birth missing'. Incredibley, within hours of doing this someone added a date. Because of the short time this took to appear (if it was that easy to get hold of, why wasn't it already put there?) and the fact that I couldn't find ny own source after a long time of searching, I suspected that the information could be false. Therefore I requested a citation for it. Incidentally the year itself remains debatable as it only appears on IMDB.com (not a good source as they don't always request proof) and you don't have to have been 21 in 2000 in order to be a degree graduate (just no younger). I will again re-request the citation for the age. May I respectfully ask that it remains there until the information has been verified as per Wikipedia guidelines. Thanks. ~~ Peteb16 18:16, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
- Sounds fair enough to me. Has anyone checked the fan sites for dates? 23skidoo 21:56, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
