I'm not sure about moving Jeane Dixon effect. While they should be linked, a reference to Jeane Dixon effect gets lost in the page on Jeane Dixon. I did move it to a proper spelling, though, as I mispelled her name.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Dixon-from cnn.jpg

Image:Dixon-from cnn.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Suggested further work

Other works might be checked. Ruth Montgomery wrote a biography of her, A Gift of Prophecy. [1] I recall that Skeptical Inquirer did a critical piece on her. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.81.149.130 (talk) 15:29, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Year of birth

An editor had suggested 1904 as the year of birth instead of 1918. However, the CNN obituary said 1918 so I changed it back using the obituary as a citation. I will let others do more research about the correct year even day of birth provided they provide the citations, etc.-Thank you-RFD (talk) 21:43, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

I reserted the CNN obituary;it was a good faith edit that should not had been deleted. On the other hand, I will not change the article of the year of Jeane Dixon's birth from 1904 to 1918. I hope the citation I just put in will stay in. I hope whoever make any changes will respond on the talk page. Thank you-RFD (talk) 16:20, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

I ran through Jeane Dixon's name in the Social Security Death List and Jeane Dixon was probably born in 1904 not 1918. However, some sort of citation-footnote is needed as that the news media still has Mrs. Dixon as being born in 1918 and there would be some confusion.Thank you-RFD (talk) 01:19, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Her younger sister died earlier this year, age 98. Obviously, 1918 is not correct. see link[[2]]--CSvBibra (talk) 04:53, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I tried the Taylor County, Wisconsin historical society to see if they had any information about the Pinckert Family but had no luck. Also I came across a website about a museum concerning Jeane Dixon-but the museum was silent about her birth.Jeane Dixon had a brother Erny Pinckert who was born around 1907 or so.Thank you-RFD (talk) 13:05, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

The State of Wisconsin probably has a birth certificate for Jeane Dixon. The next time I am at the La Crosse, Wisconsin public library, I will use the library subscription Ancestry.Com to try to locate her birth certificate.Thank you-RFD (talk) 13:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
