Pedofile and bigamist?

In the text, it says: "He is married, with two children." I am not a native speaker English, but the sentence can't be good English. To me, it suggests he is married to two children. Or is there some very subtle rule concerning commas here? Jens Persson (213.67.64.22 20:05, 20 February 2007 (UTC))[reply]

The comma's probably not necessary, but it certainly doesn't imply what you think it does.

"Married, with two children" means that he is married to somebody, and is also the father or caretaker of two children. If he was a pedophile, which he isn't, it would be "Married to two children". Illegitimate Barrister (talk) 04:32, 19 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

The filmography needs to be on the page. If it being "unsourced" is a reason it shouldn't be, I can list a dozen other actor/actress pages with the same style of filmography. All, according to the people who keep removing it, "unsourced". Solar Dragon (talk) 23:16, 1 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Melissa Benoist, Stephen Amell, Kiefer Sutherland filmography, Chris Evans (actor). Examples of actor pages with the same style of filmography, no sources for any of them. As is the case for hundreds of other actor articles. Seriously, just look around. If this filmography shouldn't be on this article, go remove it from the other hundreds of articles too.

WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS is not a reason to violate a pillar policy (WP:V). You've been reverted by multiple editors. You are NOT going to gain a local consensus to violate a pillar policy. The BURDEN is on you to provide sources. Not another editor and certainly not the reader. As this is just silly I'll not be responding to any comment that isn't about which sources to use, but I'm hoping you know what Reliable, secondary sources are. Please ping me if you develop a different argument. If you want to source it and restore it, just WP:BEBOLD and do it, keeping in mind that IMDb is not a reliable source. John from Idegon (talk) 06:50, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Actually he's right that there does seem to be some consensus about not having to source filmographies. I've tried to delete unsourced filmographies before and got pushback that boiled down to "well Wikiproject Film makes the rules about this stuff so WP:V doesn't apply actually" 199.247.44.10 (talk) 08:30, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiprojects cannot make any guideline that violates pillar policy. Sorry. John from Idegon (talk) 09:01, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question though…why are all of Morshower’s roles removed?--Simmerdon3448 (talk) 01:48, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Because it was unsourced. And WP:BURDEN applies. John from Idegon (talk) 02:21, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

deadwood

he played "Bart" on Deadwood but it's not listed in his filmography 2603:6010:5E26:6100:90A7:8DA2:CAA4:622D (talk) 22:42, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Birthdate

Several reliable sources (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) lists year of birth, IMDB lists date and place. If it is enough to be added to article, please add it (I'm not familiar with interpretation of policies on enwiki). --Adam Hauner (talk) 22:02, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Databases are tricky, as a lot depends on the source for their data. I first thought the Library of Congress page might work for year of birth, but found that it pulled its info from IMDb. WP:IMDb is not a reliable source. (The relevant guidance is at WP:DOB.) Schazjmd (talk) 22:22, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
