Your edit to Laura Young

[edit]

I've reverted your edit to the Laura Young article. We should have reliable sources cited for real names of celebrities who go by stage names as well as other personal details such as children's names. Also, that info doesn't belong in the references section of the article. If you have any questions about this, don't hesitate to ask at either the help desk or at my talk page.

Since you say that you're related to Ms. Young, I'll direct your attention to the problems in an article about you section of Wikipedia's autobiography policy.
The reason it doesn't belong in the "References" section of the article, is that the info isn't a reference. The info that you added should be part of the main body of the article or a "Personal life" section. The references section is for listing where info came from such as books, magazines, web sites, etc.
If you have any more questions, let me know and I'll try to help in any way that I can. Dismas|(talk) 03:17, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 18:41, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
