Revert

Last night, I made the silly mistake of editing this article in a futile attempt to make it sound less amaeturish and more in line with this odd thing called an encylopedia. As expected, my entire edit was reverted. I don't care much about squabbling about this woman's year of birth, but I made other changes that were not at all controversial that were reverted (ie no source for the religion claim, an entire section called "Anemia" (the hell is that about?) and general copy edits). I've taken the liberty of restoring those particular edits and not the DOB info because it's utter bullshit that one editor makes a sweeping revert because they take issue with one aspect of the edit. Re: the DOB, I added text explaining why the issue is disputed and not included in the article because it makes no sense to include the stream of thought about it in a citation. Most people only read Wikipedia and don't go in to read edit notes (or an essay in this case) or check out the ref section. If there's still an issue with this edit, hashing it out here would be preferable to being summarily reverted. 2602:306:8383:E010:1501:93EB:D33F:242A (talk) 07:13, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
