Not done: as you have not requested a specific change in the form "Please replace XXX with YYY" or "Please add ZZZ between PPP and QQQ".
More importantly, you have not cited reliable sources to back up your request, without which no information should be added to, or changed in, any article. - Arjayay (talk) 20:04, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

He really does live in South Korea!

It's true! I read about it in a celebrity tabloid! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:301:77A0:90:754D:AB3F:92FF:27CA (talk) 01:33, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So sorry – sources tell us that the birth date in this article, 25 May 1963, is correct.  Paine Ellsworth  u/c 17:55, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I propose adding in a note indicating that Myers resides in New York as of January 2017, as the new last line in the "Personal Life" section, citing the following article from USA Today: http://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/destinations/10greatplaces/2017/01/20/mike-myers-canada/96768702/ ("'New York is where I live, but Toronto will always be my home.'”).One-Off Contributor (talk) 15:48, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done---The source cited by you hardly passes the definition of a reliable source.Please cite any WP:RS to justify your inclusion.Winged Blades Godric 14:34, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Source meets reliability guidelines. Article is from online edition of newspaper USA Today, a newspaper of general distribution that publishes corrections (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2013/01/09/corrections-clarifications/1821023/). It qualifies as a secondary source, as quoting from an interview of Myers himself. The text quoted is attributed directly to Myers, from that interview. Additional corroborating secondary sources include the following: http://www.gq.com/story/mike-myers, http://variety.com/2017/dirt/real-estalker/mike-meyers-new-york-city-condo-tribeca-1201959325/, http://observer.com/2017/01/mike-myers-lists-tribeca-nyc-apartment-austin-powers/, http://www.vancouversun.com/entertainment/mike+myers+book+canada+relationship+with+home+country/12327434/story.html, http://www.torontosun.com/2016/08/25/mike-myers-talks-waynes-world-the-leafs-austin-powers (articles from news organizations Toronto Sun, Variety, GQ and Vancouver Sun. Thus ample reliable evidence meeting WP:RS standards exists to justify this edit.One-Off Contributor (talk) 16:07, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Precise proposed text, under "Personal Life": "As of January 2017, Myers resides in New York City."One-Off Contributor (talk) 15:41, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In a few weeks the photo for this article will be 27 years old. Surely a more up to date image can be found.
