Errors in Her Age & DOB[edit]

According to IMDB^[1], Sarah Polley wasn't born on May 13, 1873 and isn't actually 147 years old.

She was born on January 8, 1979 and is 41 years old.

I assume that her "Years Active" also aren't 1879-present.

fire extinguisher[edit]

a massive fire extinguisher fell onto her head and caused major damage that took years to heal. so this is not worthy of inclusion but the fact that her mother had an affair with the person who is her real father is repeated like some salacious gossip? https://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/books/article-sarah-polley-hopes-her-jian-ghomeshi-essay-speaks-for-women-who-choose/ 70.48.36.71 (talk) 18:44, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

father[edit]

Under family on the bar on the right, her biological father is listed. Since presumably that's not her legal father, I believe her legal father should be listed as well, but I'm unclear on whether there are wikipedia standards that dictate only biological family is listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.161.252.102 (talk) 17:26, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
