Date of birth edit
Please advise why date of birth keep being removed? Source is reliable and other subjects who have a wiki page have their date of birth published. Why is this a special case? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.232.229 (talk) 08:24, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- The same OTRS ticket that's been in force for the last three years. See /Archive 1#Edit Warring never a good idea, where the OTRS ticket was initially noted, and /Archive 2#Surrey info. It would appear that you were a party to that latter discussion. —C.Fred (talk) 14:34, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- To expand on the above, a request was made per WP:BLPPRIVACY, and the request was granted. As this is not widely publicised (and are not a major public figure), we do respect privacy and data when requested. Mdann52 (talk) 17:40, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
Subject is now more widely known public figure so I'd say her DOB can be shown. How can previous decision be challenged? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.232.229 (talk) 18:47, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
Also when the subject actively seeks out publicity and show off her home then how can this be such a private person?http://www.wayfair.co.uk/aresidence/2015/12/29/suzannah-lipscomb/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.232.229 (talk) 19:05, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- You'll note that nowhere in the piece was the street address of the house given. There weren't even exterior photos. Sounds like they're still maintaining some privacy. —C.Fred (talk) 19:23, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
But subject regularly gives media interviews, so is hardly publicity adverse. Information on birthdate is also publicly available. http://www.thefamouspeople.com/briton-historians.php — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.216.13 (talk) 19:52, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- That site fails WP:RS. Frankly, if that's the best place you can find it, it's not widely-disseminated information and should not appear in the Wikipedia article. —C.Fred (talk) 20:02, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2010030157.html - this is a reliable site so should be used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.216.13 (talk) 20:26, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
- That was the source that had been used before, at the time Mdann52 reviewed the request from the subject in the OTRS. There is nothing further that can be done by normal editors or administrators. I suppose if you want to appeal the decision, you'll need to email the Volunteer Response Team directly. —C.Fred (talk) 20:31, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
Marriage edit
The subject married in the UK then had a blessing in France in 2017. The husband is the actor Tom Hutch. Why can this not be added to the article? The marriage is a known fact among friends and colleagues. There are plenty of articles on Wikipedia that don't have sources for every single statement written. Why is this subject any different? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.214.224 (talk) 15:44, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
- I refer you to the previous discussion, which discusses a WP:BLPPRIVACY request relating to this article. If the subject's marriage was not reported by reliable third party media then it shouldn't be mentioned here. This is Paul (talk) 18:39, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
Time Team? edit
Why no reference to Dr. Lipscomb’s appearance on Time Team? 2601:6C5:201:2690:F17A:4E45:9A26:83E2 (talk) 01:50, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
- If you know about it, you could add it. Camomilelawn (talk) 20:39, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
Personal life edit
This part of the page seems very odd to me. There isn't any describtion of her personal life, only a vague quote, perhaps suggesting a certain sexual orientation. To me, it seems suggestive and I can't understand the motive or reasoning for including this. I suggest removing it entirely.Thewhitestboyalive1 (talk) 23:15, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
