Jim Cullivan

Hi guys,

Can we please add Jim Cullivan, an American football coach. He is a centenarian who is still alive and will be 101 on 10 June. This would be very appreciated. Thanks. User:Jack M E 01 (talk) 21:20, 25 May 2022 (GMT)

Shi Ping

He is not validated by the GRG/other longevity entities (as he should be in the top 10 oldest man in the world if validated). Just a random Wikipedian^(talk) 02:46, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bert Corona

Please add Bert Corona to the centenarian list… he is currently 102 and will be 103 June 1st. Bert resides in the US and was a World War 2 veteran. His birthday is June 1 1921 Corusso (talk) 01:42, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, this list is restricted to notable people, basically people who are the subject of Wikipedia articles. There is a Bert Corona article but it isn't the same person. Largoplazo (talk) 11:26, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Add Zoya Boguslav Russian poetess 16.04.1924 Andrewmoi1 (talk) 09:08, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean Zoya Boguslavskaya? We'd need a reliable source indicating that she's still alive as of her hundredth birthday. Can you provide one? Largoplazo (talk) 11:02, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Largoplazo (talk) 10:01, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What is the purpose of this page if it does not list all living centenarians?

? LatviaRich (talk) 13:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:LISTCRITERIA. This list conventionally includes only people who are the subject of articles. Similarly, List of clarinetists isn't a directory of all the millions of people in the world who play the clarinet. Also, see the note on the list itself that there's a separate list for those who are noted only because of their great age. Largoplazo (talk) 15:53, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Brackets for Franca Pilla

An edit has been made that has reverted the brackets in the description section of Franca Pilla to a semi-colon. I added the brackets there so that it looked better for the sentence as a whole. The comma makes the section look untidy as it gives the idea that her title separates from all info but the brackets can be to give a separate indication of what this connection is.

I hope this can be reverted respectfully; I have not done it as I do not which to upset anyone. MusicFan05 (talk) 20:40, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vera Korolyova

Can we please add Vera Korolyova, a Russian agricultural manager and recipient of medal of Hero of socialist labor (1947). She turned 110 with her official birthdate is September 30 (the day of her patron saint, parish register entry lists her birth on August 22). Article in the Russian wiki ru:Королёва, Вера Николаевна Source:https://360.ru/news/mosobl/samaja-vozrastnaja-zhitelnitsa-podmoskovja-iz-klina-otmetila-110-j-den-rozhdenija/ --95.24.10.30 (talk) 23:18, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You can add her here and on List of notable supercentenarians. Be bold! --Florian Blaschke (talk) 22:36, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hsu Li-nung

Hsu Li-nung is listed here as being born on April 4, 1919, but his page lists him as being born on April 11, 1921. Can someone correct the discrepancy? I do not know anything near enough about him to be able to say which is accurate. Thebirdlover (talk) 16:38, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Thebirdlover: I can't read Chinese, but using DeepL, the source cited in the list appears to have reported on March 5, 2019, that Hsu was congratulated for his 100th birthday (101st in Chinese reckoning) the day before, which supports a year of birth 1919 and day of birth March 4 (not April 4, which is unsourced). On the other hand, the birth year 1921 claimed in his article on the English Wikipedia is not supported by any ref. His article on Chinese Wikipedia notes that his year of birth is controversial between 1918, 1919 and 1921, and that his day of birth is unclear as well, variously given between March 1, March 4, and the fourth day of the third month of the lunar calendar (which explains the day of birth April 11 given on English Wikipedia). It's a big mess. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 23:07, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A few missing people

Please add; Albert Houssiau Age 100 Born 2/11/1924 Known for: Being a Belgian prelate of the Catholic Church.

@Deagle2029: I am repeating & reformatting your list for readability.

~~Albert Houssiau Age 100 Born 2/11/1924 Belgian prelate of the Catholic Church.~~
~~Shubert Spero Age 101 Born 23/9/1923 Jewish Rabbi and Author~~
~~Elizabeth Kelly Age 103 Born 29/5/1921 British actress~~
~~Eileen Bennett Age 104 Born 8/7/1920 British actress~~
~~María Cristina Camilo [es] Age 105 Born 25/12/1918 Dominican Actress~~

I have other duties to perform first, but if someone does not get to adding them first, I will get to it later. Since you have a single edit, dealing with table rows, the {{Hs}} & {{ayd}} templates, & footnotes with citation templates can be quite daunting, although I do encourage you to learn when you can. Peaceray (talk) 16:45, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Eileen Bennett is already listed. She was born in 1919, not 1920. Nohomersryan (talk) 18:43, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
