Born in 1954, died in 2015 - 64 years old?

[edit]

Sorry - the math does not hold up. He can't have been born in 1954 and died in 2015 aged 64. He would be 60 or 61 years old at death, if that birth year is correct. Or, he was born in 1950 or 1951, to make him 64 years old at death. Whoever tries to look after this article needs to spend a little time researching the truth, and certainly making sure that it does not lie, which is the case at the moment. 86.113.183.108 (talk) 14:46, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See the French source http://www.lagrosseradio.com/reggae/webzine-reggae/actu-reggae/p13461-peter-broggs-l-international-farmer-est-decede.html - this intimates that he was actually 61 years old at death (not 64), and should form the basis of a rethink, I believe. 86.113.183.108 (talk) 14:49, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
We have one source stating he was 64, another that he was 61. The one stating 64 looks more reliable, but we also have a source stating he was born in 1954. I've changed it to be consistent and added a note as there is some doubt about his age without better sourcing. --Michig (talk) 15:00, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
