With what degree of certainty can we say that the "Living people" and "American centenarians" categories are warranted in her article? The former is a little more lenient because it's a decade's worth of updates. Fuller did not, to my knowledge at least, have any interviews after the Michael Fitzgerald and Boyd Magers one. Which I'm guessing was conducted more than ten years ago.
The centenarian category requires that the person is confirmed alive on their 100th birthday, unless they're a REALLY notable person whose death wouldn't go under the radar even if they chose to be reclusive. If Barbra still thinks of herself as born in 1925, then I suppose that could explain the lack of milestone acknowledgment. Thoughts? OscarL21:41, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @OscarLake:, agree with you – the centenarian category is assertive and should require a source, so I've removed it. 1921 is definitely correct as per public records (birth, residence etc.) on Ancestry. Fuller retired from acting in 1973 and disappeared into obscurity so I'm not surprised there was no media coverage of her 100th. She last made a public appearance in a small documentary in 1994. Her godson, J.P. Sloane, has a website here. It was last updated in 2015 and mentions Fuller in the present tense. A quick search on MyLife and SearchPeopleFree suggests she's still living in Sherman Oaks, California aged 101. I'm pretty certain she's still alive (or was up until very recently). Hopefully she will not die off radar. Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 13:01, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
