Night Here s your cite which actually addresses several of your wishes WP Biographies of Living Persons You should look especially to Using the subject as a self published source it states that the article is not based primarily on such sources Thirteen of your eighteen source references are to Pedro and Me or Winick s personal sites yes IMDB counts For example you cite the book as the reason for keeping in the discussion of Rainey while I repeat it s an isolated non turning point event in his life It is appropriate for the Real World page perhaps but here it s a little off topic You might as well put in the name of a flavor of ice cream he doesn t like or that someone was mean to him in middle school It s just not important enough for what should be a short bio And a link to Zamora s bio can cover his illness a mention that he had HIV AIDS and was ill covers him quite nicelythere s no need to go into it except for the impact it had on Winick I m just trying to get the article back on track as a one topic writing hereI m not accusing you of anything To answer your direct question see the heading Presumption in Favor of Privacy under Privacy of Birthdays on the same page it may be published elsewhere but I don t know that he s quite notable enough to justify keeping the full date where s the harm in only noting the year It seems a fairly harmless sensible change to me Also can someone who is more familiar with the subject add back a criticisms section As there are two of us at least that came to WP solely to find out what the controversy surrounding him might be can someone add this information I m still in the dark
