Malcolm X—image from aftermath of assissanation
My error—I assumed an image in the box had just been deleted from Commons. — Neonorange (Phil — 09:12, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
- No problem, Neonorange. There were a lot of image-related changes in the past few days. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 01:02, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
Living Person - Date of Birth
I am confused, my initial edit, for 1970-1971 was correct. I have seen that on many Wikipedia pages where the date of birth is uncertain. Also, how was it poorly sourced, if the years can be extrapolated from the publication date?

- Hi Rmkane. Biographies of living people are supposed to be held to very strict standards, and that includes the sources that are used. Our policy says that "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation; material not meeting this standard may be removed.... [C]ontentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced should be removed immediately and without discussion. This applies whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable".
- I found this Variety article that says Haydn was born in 1969, and I'm going to add it to the article. If you find a better reliable source with respect to Haydn's birthdate, please update the article accordingly. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 02:51, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
