date of birth edit
Is there a source for the recently inserted exact date?--Kmhkmh (talk) 23:04, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
- The linked page shows Dec 1983, not September, even though she just shared birthday celebrations on her Instagram account. Is there an official source for September 1983 because if the month is wrong, the year could be too. 222.154.145.202 (talk) 23:13, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- She recently tweeted that the year is wrong. September 18 is in her IMDb page. The linked birth record could refer to someone else with the same name. Zelani (talk) 12:12, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- I have removed the birth year for the reasons stated above. Zelani (talk) 13:42, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- Her X/Twitter/whatever states 1989. If she is correcting the info on that tweet, I would say that's enough of a verification from the person. – The Grid (talk) 14:34, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I concur. Zelani (talk) 14:54, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- Not quite. Sorry i didn't see this discussion ealier when changing the article. However a statement on her twitter page is not sufficient to overrule a 3rd party source and copy of an official birth registration. Those certainly get priority over Chong's personal statement unless there is additional evidence (also note the Evening Standard explicitly points Chong being cagey of her age and it not uncommon for people in show business to keep their (older) age private for career/job reasons).
- Now if there WP:BIO concerns (and sufficient doubt about the sources being correct) then the correct approach is to give no age at all, but we cannot simply take Chong's word/her twitter page (alone) for an alternative date.--Kmhkmh (talk) 16:59, 9 January 2024 (UTC)↕

I just came across the following on a web site called TMDB. I had posted the link, but for some reason the site is blacklisted. Here is what the site has on her - Personal Info Known For Acting Known Credits 19 Gender Female
Birthday September 18, 1983 (40 years old)

Is her agent really that important to list in the article? edit
Under the picture in the infobox it lists her agent/agency. Is that really important and notable enough to be listed in the article? 97.122.180.75 (talk) 06:37, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
