Date of birth

There has been some confusion about the day he was born. (See the edits on 13-14 March 2016.) The article again says‎ 31 October, but please take a look at the following sources:

transfermarkt.nl (7 Oct)
soccerbase.com (7 Oct)
soccerway.com (7 Oct)
soccer magazine (7 Oct)
"Today is Wanderson Maciel Sousa Campos's birthday: our under-19 player turns 17. Congratulations! (dated 7 Oct), message posted by Beerschot AC, the club where he played.

Thank you for sorting it out. ErikvanB (talk) 12:36, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ErikvanB: Transfermarkt is not considered a reliable source, nor Facebook. As for the others, I have to admit that VI is a good and reliable source for Dutch footballers... However, BDFutbol and that AS article state that he was born on 31 October. Feel free to (re-)revert me, as he doesn't have any official page on Facebook, Twitter or in any other social media for us to ensure his birthday. Cheers, MYS 77 ^✉ 12:56, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, MYS77. ErikvanB (talk) 16:05, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ErikvanB: Getafe's official website and Beerschot's official website (archive) also show his birthday as 7 October. As only some Spanish sources brought his birthday as 31 October (and both may be wrong), should we restore the full birthdate? MYS77 ^✉ 21:33, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @MYS77: Yes, all right, I guess it would be quite safe to restore the full birthdate now. Shall I leave it to you? ErikvanB (talk) 00:09, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ErikvanB: Sure thing. I'll do it right now. Cheers, MYS 77 ^✉ 00:14, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
