Several times now I read in forums about her serbian, or half-serbian heritage. Also about her being born Vladisavljevic, or similar. Are there any reliable sources that can shed some light on this topic? --B bog (talk) 10:47, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
The Nova TV article I linked states the surname explicitly. That's as far as I'm willing to go, because everything else seems to be a lot of forum jabber inappropriate for a WP:BLP. Obviously reliable sources saying differently would be welcome. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 10:54, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
Once again, the Nova TV article I linked explicitly states that surname. No, not in the anonymous comment section, but in the article text. I included it in the "quote" parameter of {{cite news}}. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 10:58, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
OK, now I also found it. Obviously wasn't reading it carefully enough. Nevertheless it is at least questionable. As she was born Kosor [1]. Later her parents divorced. Her father is still alive in Čakovec. And she as a teenager was still called Kosor (which is documented in the school yearbook). So the question is when the name Vlaisavljevic comes into existance. Is this maybe the second husband of her mother? Or any other link? --B bog (talk) 11:20, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
Ah, so it's not a birth name, but something from a step-father? Then we could just omit it completely until a reliable source about that person comes up. The net.hr article implies that her parents divorced in 1955, so she was already born at the time. Hence the step-father's surname could have been used for a small number of years and mentioning it has little to no practical purpose. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 11:27, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
