Year of birth

edit

Some sources claim that Kumar was born in 1929, however, The Guardian reference (which is the current reference in the article) states his birth year as 1927. The Wikipedia policy WP:DOB states: "If multiple independent reliable sources state differing years or dates of birth in conflict, include all birth dates/years for which a reliable source exists, clearly noting discrepancies. In this situation, editors must not include only one date/year which they consider "most likely", or include merely a single date from one of two or more reliable sources. Original research must not be used to extrapolate the date of birth." If someone would like to add a statement regarding competing dates of birth, I believe that this would align with the given policy. Thanks! Wikipedialuva (talk) 08:30, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
