Sunday World and Evoke seem not to be serious references, I think. The Irish Independent (ref. 6: age of 24 = born in 1991) and the external link at IMDb with the exact date of birth (born 8 January 1991) should be better references. It's too complicated for me to do the corrections. Please help and do it.--Albrecht1 (talk) 20:29, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi.
To confirm, reference number 6 is not The Irish Independent. It is one of Independent News & Media's entertainment outlets. (Not everything published on "independent.ie" is the Irish Independent. As we see in the other references (#7 for example), articles from regional titles, like the Evening Herald, are also published on the "main" independent.ie website.)
In terms of whether and which reference to use, the problem is that - even within the Independent News & Media (INM) stable - there is conflict. The Evening Herald (INM) article disagrees with the INM movies/entertainment title. For example. Of the sources we have, and absent a SPECIFIC date of birth, Template:Birth based on age as of date gives us (variously):
Evening Herald (INM) (Feb 2015) "Elva (24) plays Charlene Waters": 1990 or 1991 (age 33–34)
Indo Entertainment (INM) (Aug 2015) "Elva (24) has bagged a string of covetable roles": 1990 or 1991 (age 33–34)
Sunday World (May 2021) "Elva Trill (28) from Sligo": 1992 or 1993 (age 31–32)
Evoke.ie (Jun 2021) "The 28-year-old actress": 1992 or 1993 (age 31–32)
Personally, as you note, I'm inclined to expect that the age given in 2015 sources ("24") was/is correct. But there has been some back and forth about it. With some (anon) contributors taking things even further. Thoughts? Guliolopez (talk) 21:11, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK. There have been no other thoughts/inputs (to explain why the two 2015 sources, both of which give the subject's age as 24 as of 2015, should be considered incorrect). Given that, as above, there are other (subsequent) sources which give a slightly different age, I've updated to reflect the source that is (somewhat) in the middle. As above, IMDB doesn't meet WP:RS.
