Talk:Nigel Havers

message: There seems a lot of conflicting info around regarding his date of birth.
* Sources such as this interview and here  would suggest it's 1951. (57 in June & Sept 2009)
* While this source says it's 1950, and this agrees.
* While here and here say 1949.
Anyone have a definitive and reliable source?  Failing that, I would suggest we go with what the man himself says, as indicated in my first link above.  He may be wrong, he may be 'massaging the figures', but it's the most authoritative source available; himself.  --Escape Orbit (Talk) 00:25, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't quibble with the 1951 date, but not because Havers himself said so. The thing is that, although an individual is present at their own birth, an advantage that most researchers cannot claim to have, they are hardly in a position to say with absolute authority exactly when that birth occurred.  They know what date they were told by their parents, or what date appears on their birth certificate.  Also, actors are a vain lot, and relying on what they tell the world about their ages is a very slippery slope.  --  Jack of Oz [your turn] 19:19, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

message: The section on Havers' comments on cyclists seems very out of place. I'm sure he's made many comments about many different things but that doen't mean they're relevent. Maybe I missing somthing but it just doesn't seem to be important enough to be in this article. SayPeanuts (talk) 21:33, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Re this edit: there are problems with WP:OR, which says that "Articles may not contain any new analysis or synthesis of published material that serves to reach or imply a conclusion not clearly stated by the sources themselves." While I'm not saying that it isn't Nigel Havers singing on side B, this isn't clearly confirmed by the source at . It's also rather obscure as the record label is the only online source that I could find mentioning this, so there are also problems with WP:DUE.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 06:18, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
