Birthyear

There are 2 different Birthyears in the article. Once it says 1982, but twice it says 1985. What is correct? --NASCARaddicted (talk) 00:58, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

I was just noticing the same thing. When it comes to celebrities, I'm always inclined to believe the older age whenever there's conflicting information. 209.90.140.72 (talk) 00:35, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Up until today, we had a cite for 1982. An editor has now supplied a cite for 1985 as well:

• [1] article dated June 30, 2015 says she was 30 years old, which makes her birth-year 1985.
• [2] personal profile says 1982.

Given a contradiction among cited sources that seem reasonable/reliable on their face, I have removed the year entirely per a failure of verifiability policy to confirm either one. As a reminder, WP:BLP forbids including contested biographical information that is contradicted by a presumed good source. DMacks (talk) 20:57, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

I went to high school with her. She was born in 1982. Graduated same year. She's 33.(24.36.249.63 (talk) 17:18, 17 August 2015 (UTC))

Insufficiently WP:RS. DMacks (talk) 04:19, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

It's obvious to be me that she was actually born in 1982. This article from her college: Humber College: [3], states that she graduated college in 2003. If she were born in 1985 she would have been 18 when she graduated college, which is essentially impossible in Canada. It's clear her PR team is trying to lie about her age to make her appear younger than she is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TorontoFC1992 (talk • contribs) 16:21, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Actually the relevant quote from it is "On Nov. 3 Arbour stepped back onto Humber grounds almost 11 years after graduating." So call it 10 years and change. The article is dated November 7, 2014 meaning 2003 or 2004 for when she graduated. Say we assume 2004 for when she graduated (though I personally think 2003 is more likely), then if she was born in 1985 then she was 19 when she graduated. It's possible, if Nicole entered at age 17 and took a 2 year program. (And FWIW, I have zero relationship with her). Tabercil (talk) 16:38, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Indeed. And we can't use WP:SYNTH based on what we suspect is most likely/reasonable. DMacks (talk) 04:20, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Doesn't seem to be an edit request. Shearonink (talk) 16:59, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

This is written by what appears to be a very biased source and contains many claims which remain without citation. Also, there are bizarre errors in spelling, such as "up-dated"

Almost the entire advertisement section is written like a self congratulating biography, and one without sources. An example (this doesn't have a source linked to it)

In 2005, Nike Canada brought Arbour on board to be spokesperson and part of the writing team for the RUN TO 10k event on Centre Island in Toronto. This campaign was the largest advertising and run initiative in Nike Canada's history, with over 25,000 participants in the run, and featured Arbour's one liners pitting each Toronto neighborhood against each other to find out, "Who Runs This Town?" on apparel, print, radio, and live events such as Toronto Blue Jays games. During an early season Blue Jays game against the Washington Nationals, Arbour burst onto the field and led the crowd in her version of the seventh inning stretch. 74.132.66.103 (talk) 20:55, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
