Birthdate inclusion

), so I would argue that publishing your birth day to a large public audience gives an implicit allowability. I've seen including a CALC birthday been done before where there has been consensus that they pass under CALC and BLPPRIVACY (e.g. Dream (YouTuber) iirc). SWinxy (talk) 02:19, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Phillip Buchanan
Isn't the person who runs the account Phillip Buchanan? I noticed that it had been apart of the article earlier but was removed and I'm unsure as to why. I noticed that the source from

full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public.
He definitely would object to his name being included, but he's tweeted about his birthday and age, so it can go in. SWinxy (talk) 00:59, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

Room for Article Improvement
I feel as though the article could be improved by making reference to his ongoing podcast, and his appearance on the podcast hosted by
]- Go for mentioning his podcast. I think it's fine to cite IMDb for him having one, since it's low-stakes (factual) information. His appearance on Carlson's own podcast is not worth mentioning; we don't make note of appearances. SWinxy (talk) 17:54, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
Disinformation?
Do you say the same about MSNBC? 73.124.115.208 (talk) 03:40, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
What does this sentence mean? It is incomprehensible,and not English
"The Twitter handle @catturd had been taken in 2010, and denied from being the poster of the suspended account @CATTURD1."
Is/are "@catturd", "@CATTURD1", and "CATTURD2" suposed to be the same person? Totally baffled. 24.47.49.74 (talk) 00:19, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
- Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out. It means to say that @catturd and @CATTURD1 were both registered accounts on Twitter. https://twitter.com/catturd is an account, while https://twitter.com/CATTURD1 is suspended. Catturd (i.e. Buchanan) says he wasn't in charge of @CATTURD1, but the Rolling Stone article didn't explicitly say they were different people. SWinxy (talk) 03:42, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
