1988

The source does not say that Emilia was born in 1988, but only that she is 23. We can't write born "circa" 1988. Please stop the edit war. --Maz-El (talk) 21:15, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Um. Ye we can. That is the entire point of the word "circa". According to WP:MOS, when an exact date is in question, but a approximate year is known (as is the case here), we are to use either circa or a question mark after the year (e.g., "1988?"). I don't understand what your issue is here? I wanted to know how old Emilia Clarke is, but couldn't find her exact DOB. I found that she was 23-years old in April 2011 (in that source), so it is reasonable to assume either 1987 or 1988 and, thereby, use the circa 1988. If you prefer, we could state something like: "born c. 1987-1988". Anyway, this hasn't turned into an edit war yet (but I could equally accuse you of engaging in it). I just wanted to know how old Ms. Clarke was and found that Wikipedia (my first destination) did not have the information. --Thorwald (talk) 21:42, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, but we can't categorize her into "1988 births". We can write "In April 2011 she was 23-years old". In any case, {{Birth based on age as of date|23|2011|04|01}} is perfect, we don't have it on it.wiki. I'm glad you have found a solution. Bye! --Maz-El (talk) 06:30, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to No Original Research: Routine calculations, routine calculations like calculating a person's age or birth year is OK. I wouldn't categorize her into 1988 births because it may be that she was born in late '87. FurrySings (talk) 22:45, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Buckinghamshire or Berkshire?

Here they say that Emilia grew up in Buckinghamshire, here they say that she grew up in Berkshire. --Maz-El (talk) 18:22, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Best Known?

How can she be "best known" for a role that no-one's seen her in yet? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.145.13.34 (talk) 03:31, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The series has aired (started in April 2011) and it has been her biggest project of her career. I would say it is accurate for her best known as her character in Game of Thrones. immunity talk 05:34, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
