Talk:Shirley Hughes

message: Hey! Maybe there's some template talk where I could bring this up, or maybe here's best. In the infobox, next to birthdate, we have her date of birth followed by (age 79). Now, to me, that looks like a vandal 'hilariously' suggesting she was born at age 79, but clearly it's just because someone has used a  template. I don't know if it would be better to remove the template, leaving just the birthdate, or find some template talk to change the template to give (current age 79). Thoughts?

replies: text: It wasn't a vandal, it's how they all appear, and it's that she is currently aged 79. I don't think it's a problem. --Majorly (talk) 13:00, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

text: Oh well I removed the age bit anyway. --Majorly (talk) 13:01, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. I wasn't saying that it was vandalism, nor that it showed anything other than her current age, but that the way it was presented made it look like vandalism. :-) Skittle 13:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Birthdate and age 

message: is a parent of . I deleted the former because we give other English categories and call her English in lead sentence text (where I changed the target from England to English people). Whether she considers herself English is another matter. See WP:UKNATIONALS for a lot about that. --P64 (talk) 02:56, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

message: : second of two new sections posted at once
Birthplace doesn't belong in the lead parentheses and I relegated it to Early life. We have provided simple links West Kirby, Cheshire in the text and Born: West Kirby, Merseyside in template . Those two should not conflict. If I understand correctly, West Kirby was in Cheshire when Hughes was born and raised there (1927 ff); is in Merseyside today (since 1972). Right? I resolved this using judgment that I consider good but without benefit of experience, nor of reading any pertinent Manual, guideline, or discussion. --P64 (talk) 02:56, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
