Talk:Naoko Mori

5.3 Factual correction--Birthdate
The wikia previously had Naoko Mori's birthdate listed as 19 November. However, according to various other sources, including her own Twitter post https://twitter.com/naoko_mori/status/535465119976005632 her birthday is actually 29 November.

I have (successfully) edited the entry in her personal information on here, but the other issue is the two "date" pages 29 November (people) which my edit correctly links to, though she still needs her name added to the list and 19 November (people) which needs her deleted. Both these pages are protected against editing, otherwise I'd do it myself. Side Quest Publications ☎  00:26, November 24, 2014 (UTC) SideQuestPublications


 * Per Tardis:Valid sources, an actor is not a valid source for information about him/herself. What are your other sources? Shambala108 ☎  22:03, November 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * Oops, sorry about that.
 * I assume this one falls under the "blog posts" even for numerical data like her birthdate? Seeing as Tardis:Valid sources doesn't actually mention the actors themselves with regard to real-world articles, except as regarding taking a neutral stance on actor opinions.
 * Odd, though, considering the "broader point" cited on Tardis:Valid sources/Detailed list is that "blogs and forum posts are often simply wrong" and I would think she knows her own birthday better than anyone, but if you say so.... Unless the wiki is taking the "if we do it for her, we'd have to do it for everyone" stance, which I suppose I could understand.


 * As for other sources, I of course can't include Wikipedia, but there is this Global Casting article that did an interview and profile on her that includes a mention of when she was born towards the bottom, but I could only access it via the Wayback Machine (old article) and through Google Translate

 * Or IMDB http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0605283/ also lists the 29 November birthdate. Don't know where they got their information from, so I don't know if that qualifies.


 * If you don't mind me asking--I'm still quite new at this and even after reading through the various necessary documents it's still possible to miss things (like my signature)--but what is the source of the original data on her... that is, of her birthday supposedly being on 19 Nov?
 * Seeing as the only mention I can find of that is on assorted fan sites and user-edited wiki-type sites, ergo invalid sources....
