Commerical / six months old / Inherit - doesn't make sense

[edit]

The following sentence does not seem to make sense:

"King was born in New York. She appeared in her first commercial when she was six months old in Inherit the Wind as Melinda."

First of all, Inherit the Wind points to a disambig page. The sentence takes a statement from imdb that she appeared in a commercial when she was six months old (circa 1960), but seems to get the 1960 version of Inherit the Wind mixed up with the 1965 version, for which she has an imdb credit. I am adjusting the sentence. KConWiki (talk) 19:53, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Year of birth

[edit]

King is currently in the category of 1955 births, but with statements elsewhere on the page (which agree with imdb) that she was born in 1960. I am changing to category: 1960 births, but if there is any conflicting info about this, let's discuss. KConWiki (talk) 23:25, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, Rotten Tomatoes has her birth date as Feb. 4 1960, as opposed to the July 21, 1960 and July 21, 1955 that we have on her page. I am going to put up some citation needed notes and see if others who are more knowledgeable on this have any comments. KConWiki (talk) 23:29, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Listening to her speaking at cons, she stated she was about 19 when she did the first "Friday the 13th" film. Do the simple math; 1979 - 1960 = 19, 1979 - 1955 = 24. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:1320:AD5:C3:A0C7:8E1C:A575 (talk) 04:50, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

IMDb still states that she was born in 1955. Mzimmerle (talk) 14:45, 20 December 2018 (UTC). There still are several factual errors IMDB makes. no site is completely perfect.[reply]

After some digging, I found her high school yearbook on classmates.com and she's listed as a senior of Oyster Bay High School in 1973. So it's looking like the 1955 birth year is the more accurate one. This can't be used as a source on the main page. I just wanted to mention this. In regards to a comment in 2018 about her saying she was 19 when she filmed Friday the 13th, seems like she lied. But it wouldn't be the only time an actress lied about her age.

EDIT: Having said this this would still be a WP:BLPPRIVACY issue. So unless her DOB gets published widely by reliable secondary sources, it should stay out of the article.Kcj5062 (talk) 06:25, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
