Notability edit

Why are you guys trying to delete this page? "Not notable"!? She's had #1 hits!! Her songs have been featured in at least 5 movies! She wrote a song for JOSS STONE! She's notable!

Well, one thing that would help is proper sources demonstrating notability. You've cited youtube (not a proper source), Wikipedia (no, we're not a proper source), and myspace (anyone can make one: my brother made one for Jesus). Ian.thomson (talk) 22:20, 24 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Birth year edit

There seems to be some disagreement concerning the birth year of this person. The article sited that gives her birth year as 1970 is in error. Pretty Poison's first single came out in 1981 and Jade Starling was most definitely not 11 years old at that time. Her birth year is 1959. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.65.73.153 (talk) 14:26, 24 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

New stuff goes at the bottom. Do you have sources to cite? Ian.thomson (talk) 15:10, 24 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

This article written in 1987 states that Jade Starling was in high school in 1977. http://articles.philly.com/1987-11-23/news/26174113_1_local-band-whey-cooler-dance Even if I can't find source explicitly saying that 1959 is her true birth year, 1970 being obviously wrong when compared against the known timeline for Pretty Poison singles shouldn't remain on the Wiki page, should it? I guess having a sibling that was in school in the same grade as she isn't a legitimate source... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.65.73.153 (talk) 16:31, 24 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Knowing someone who knew someone is not verifiable. The source you've provided though, does yield a birthyear of 1962 (1987 - 25). You still have not provided a source for her name being Jean Goldstein. Don't revert until you have a source. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:00, 24 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
