Date of birth

[edit]

The longstanding date of birth that this article uses, July 8, 1950, has no source and doesn't jibe with her age at death, which is being universally reported as 62. A few editors have tried flipping the 1950 to 1952, which is better, but it still might not be correct. --Bongwarrior (talk) 06:30, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Bongwarrior: I actually sourced her birth date from this link over at FamilySearch, which is a vital record from the California Birth Index, so I believe it to be correct. BrillLyle (talk) 03:33, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, that looks good to me. --Bongwarrior (talk) 03:55, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Stub status, citations needed

[edit]

When I heard that Trainor died I was appalled that on her Wikipedia page the main definition of her decades of work was only in relation to her ex-husband. I tried to make this entry more reflective of the fact that Trainor was a character actor who consistently worked and had a successful career in her own right. Unfortunately when I tried searching for more detailed interviews and/or news on Trainor's work I was not super successful, even in paywalled databases, so it would be great if anyone has further citations beyond Trainor being listed as a cast member, if they could contribute.....
