Birthday

Raw data hosted on the British parliament's website is not a reference. Especially when it is contradicted by the Northern Ireland Assembly's profile page which gives his date of birth as 10 June, not 9 June. This is confirmed by two posts on Paul Maskey's own Facebook page, first by him receiving an early (my emphasis) birthday surprise on 9 June, and a post from two years earlier where he says So many birthday wishes today (my emphasis) on 10 June. So I think you know what you can do with your claimed date of 9 June? FDW777 (talk) 12:44, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps one of you should look on my talk page and see if this person’s language is worthy of an administrator. Since you are always quick enough to call out other people’s bad language, let’s see if it’s good enough for you too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:B416:3000:59EA:6F7A:831A:CAD4 (talk) 19:57, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Get tf out of here Facebook is no reliable source LMAO — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:B416:3000:59EA:6F7A:831A:CAD4 (talk) 20:15, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You think the source used for hundreds of MPS DOBs is unreliable but a Facebook post is 😂😂 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:B416:3000:59EA:6F7A:831A:CAD4 (talk) 20:17, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you read WP:ABOUTSELF which clarifies exactly when Facebook pages are reliable, especially if they are verified official pages. Perhaps then you'll realise that you and your British parliament website remain wrong. FDW777 (talk) 22:18, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Could you two please calm down. Cases like this are clearly not the discretionary sanctions on The Troubles are for, and the language used by both of you is unbecoming of Wikipedians. ~ El D. (talk to me) 17:20, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
