Presented a Prince tribute show on Absolute 80s[edit]
https://absoluteradio.co.uk/schedule/non-stop-absolute-80s-25/episodes/71822/
"Nish Kumar's 'I Love Prince'
Comedian Nish Kumar's 2016 Edinburgh Fringe show charted his love affair with the 'Purple One'. Tonight he pays his respects to Prince."
Page says "This episode of Non-Stop Absolute 80s was broadcast on Sunday 19 February 2017 at 9pm on Absolute 80s." - pos original broadcast date, repeated 23/04/17 86.187.164.62 (talk) 20:36, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This article gives his date of birth as 1985/1986. How can he born in both 1985 and 1986? Vorbee (talk) 17:40, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've seen this when there is an article that mentions how old he is but it's not clear if that means he's already had a birhday or not that year. So sometimes people put this in. There's probably a way, with more research, to nail it down. Jessamyn (talk) 03:07, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
IMDB says he was born in Wandsworth, London on August 26, 1985 2.31.166.187 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:03, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
IMDb is not a reliable source, so we cannot include this information in the article, annoying as it is to not have a clear date of birth. — Bilorv (talk) 10:46, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This tweet seems to confirm that his birthday is on August 26, but does not mention a year. JW 00000 (talk) 21:07, 17 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't enough, I'm afraid, for a couple of reasons: he doesn't mention the date himself, only reply to a tweet by another person, and the tweet could easily be a joke/in-joke or have a different context to what we expect. I know it's pedantic and frustrating, but it's not a good enough source for Wikipedia. — Bilorv (talk) 01:13, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Absolutely not, I'm afraid. The Sun is not a reliable source because it is a sensationalist tabloid with a reputation for fabrication and false information. It cannot be used for even the simplest of facts. See WP:THESUN. — Bilorv (talk) 08:59, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks so much for the RHLSTP timestamp, Joe deniable - this is concrete enough to use as a source IMO. Shame it's apparently passed everyone by for a year. Also helped get rid of an instance of citogenesis at Richard Herring. (Nish isn't quite right in imagining a more rigid hierarchy of "approved moderators" than exists, but overall it's a surprisingly good media literate conversation by the pair around how Wikipedia is written and what its flaws are.)As for the tweet, you might be surprised by this but I've seen lots of instances of similar tweets contradicted by later information, so I'm inclined to leave it out and just go with 1985 for now. — Bilorv (talk) 17:44, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
He mentions in his album It’s In Your Nature to Destroy Yourselves, Pt. 2, that his birthday is in August. Registering to provide a specific track and time stamp. 24.22.121.225 (talk) 15:55, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Track and timestamp would be good. Until then I've removed it. I'd be interested to hear it in context. — Bilorv (talk) 17:03, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
