Birthplace

I've added a reference from the BBC that says she is from Bradford, but other references state she was born in Leeds. Any information that would clarify this would be helpful. Nick Watts (talk) 12:33, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There are two different birth years on the page. (ynecawla, Dec 2018) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.254.201.36 (talk) 11:16, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Heritage

I've found myself repeatedly removing unsourced information and categories about Robinson's heritage from the article. They're never sourced, I personally can't find a source for this information and the information given is almost never consistent. Usually a user will add that her mother is white (which is extremely vague) and that her father was born in Jamaica, West Indies or Barbados. This leads me to believe this is complete guess-work rather than based on an actual statement or article about this subject. As per WP:BLP I'm going to keep removing this believing it's original research until a valid reference has been provided. ~~ Peteb16 (talk) 09:02, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
