Talk:Estelle Harris

message: Please do not change year of birth from 1928 back to 1932 based on Film Reference. This reference is incorrect and clearly inferior to the following sources which confirm Harris' true year of birth:
* Intelius search by name (Estelle Harris, California), giving her age as of today as 81, not 77
* Born in 1928 as per the 1930 United States census, the daughter of Anna and Isaac Nussbaum.
The last time the year of birth was changed back it was done by the now indefinitely-banned vandal (User:SelenaMusic14). Please contact me if you have further questions; the page is on my watchlist. Thanks for your attention. Rms125a@hotmail.com (talk) 23:05, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Harris was my grandmother's neighbor from the 50s-70s. Harris's mother and father in law died around the same time in 1965 and Harris's father died in 1967 and Harris's mother-in-law died in the late 1970s.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by SexyShugar (talk • contribs) 04:04, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

message: What day was Estelle Harris actually born? Some sources, like Deadline, say April 22. Others, like New York Times, say April 4. There are more question marks than exclamation marks regarding her birth…

replies: text:  There was a discrepancy among sources at first, but soon there was a preponderance of sources saying April 22. That the New York Times originally said April 4 but then changed it to April 22 is fairly strong evidence that the latter is correct. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 22:48, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: Birthday

message: Before I do any more damage (haha), I wanted to find out what happened here. I mentioning on Liz Sheridan's Talk page that it made sense to end the page with information about Sheridan, not the (admittedly curious) fact of her dying near someone else from the show (at the same age). To see how other related pages conclude the respective personal life sections, I went over to Jerry Seinfeld's as a point of comparison. (It ends with a quote of Jerry's, so not exactly apples to apples.) I then visited Estelle Harris's page, noting the last paragraph and its similar format. Rather than make significant changes (prior to feedback on the other Talk page), I corrected a typo: a "W" instead of "w" in who, where it was not starting a sentence nor part of a quote. I also sought to streamline what appeared to me to be a somewhat clunky last sentence. But when going to identify and save the changes, both the original text (with the W and other wording) and my editorial choices disappeared. Just prior, I got a message stating I should compare the two versions before saving and that if not it would revert to the former. Which would have been fine. I'd have just proceeded one edit at a time. But in this instance those two versions did not present themselves in a way visible to me. And when I got back to the page without my changes, the original text had also disappeared! I thought, maybe someone has taken that out while I've been working on this. But I can't see that in the edit history. So, I'm wanting to state here that I had no intention to change things improperly or without rational reasoning and that I am perplexed by what occurred later. Importantly, I'd like to know how to prevent it in the future. Thank you. :) PaulThePony (talk) 19:56, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
