Famousbirthdays.com as a source
[edit]Please note that there is general consensus that famousbirthdays.com does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. (See Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_153#Is_famousbirthdays.com_a_reliable_source_for_personal_information). Famousfix seems slightly worse as a source, coming from the same publishing network as whosdatedwho.com. If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks. --Ronz (talk) 18:00, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- Famousfix is a wiki, so is completely unacceptable also.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 18:02, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- That's what I've been trying to find out; the reason this cite is considered unrealisable. If the result of this discussion is it's unreliable then be it Powermugu (talk) 18:09, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- Edit warring is not the way to find out. Absolutely no justification for it. Amaury (talk | contribs) 18:10, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- To me it looked like you were doing the warring. Describing 2 sources as "unreliable" without further information is not fruitful Powermugu (talk) 18:14, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- Not a valid rationale. Several users told you the same thing, which means we know what we're talking about since we've been here longer and have more experience. Amaury (talk | contribs) 18:17, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- Numbers is not evidence to knowledge, since you apparently got it wrong. Here is her official twitter page listing the birth date as July 25th https://twitter.com/immegdonnelly?lang=en . Nothing further to add and I'll leave the decision to admins. Cheers Powermugu (talk) 18:20, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
- When it comes to biographical information, material like this should be removed and should not be restored until there is consensus to do so. Please review WP:BLP carefully. --Ronz (talk) 18:40, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

Meg
[edit]Her birthday is 25th July btw Andrea-evaa (talk) 10:00, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
- Your assertion is unsourced (to a WP:RS), and without the year-of-birth as well is pretty useless trivia. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 13:14, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Discography section?
[edit]Seeing as Donnelly also provides vocals for the Zombies and Zombies 2 movies, each with their own album, and has recently released an album in 2019 entitled Trust, it may be prudent to create a discography section for her rather than including such information in her larger biography. The Trust album track listing on Genius can be found here at [1] 46.193.65.125 (talk) 15:11, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
- The answer is "No", unless and until Donnelly actually charts herself, as a solo artist, and for multiple things. If other things she is involved in actually charts, that can be mentioned in prose in the 'Career' section. But there is no need for a separate 'Discography' section (esp. in table format), until Donnelly has been involved in multiple singles/projects that chart, especially as a solo artist. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:50, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Agreed. She deserves her own discography but that user iBall or whatever always enforces that weird rule despite her charting multiple times and having more entries in her discography than some artists who have a discography section do. It's a dumb rule that needs to be revised, but I digress! Whyryan? (talk) 04:10, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
