Talk:Chandra Bahadur Dangi

Primordial dwarfism
Reference for Dangi having primordial dwarfism? His photos show that he has underdeveloped limbs and trunk, but a normal-sized head. This is NOT indicative of primordial dwarfism in which affected individuals show all-over normal proportions but on a much smaller scale. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dianalarose (talk • contribs) 00:09, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Heights of siblings
According to this article he has several brothers who are less than four feet tall, though this page indicates "All of his family members are of usual size."
 * I have changed the article text and added that source as a reference. But the Daily Mail is not usually considered a WP:RS, so this may be challenged. A better source should be found. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:55, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Date of death
Two of the three reliable sources say Thursday, which was 3rd September 2015. The third says "early Friday", which was 4th September. Are any other WP:RS sources available? Martinevans123 (talk) 07:51, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Thursday would be September 3 in 2015. The WP:RS in the first few google pages all show Thursday, including those in nearby time zones. (as a note, the WSJ ref given above is a blog post)
 * Thanks for clarifying. Yes, I noticed the WSJ article link says "logs.wsj.com" but I had assumed a newspaper of that stature would have checked it's content. It has some great images of Dangi, by the way. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:51, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
 * The journalistic ethics of the WSJ do not apply to their blog section.-- &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(ring-ring)  22:49, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Do you have a WP:RS for that assertion? Martinevans123 (talk) 22:04, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Following WP:NEWSBLOG.-- &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(ring-ring)  22:51, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, good advice. But it says "may be acceptable sources if the writers are professionals". How do we tell if Krishna Pokharel is "professional"? Hard to know, isn't it. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:58, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

Date of birth
The Independent gives this as 30 November here, as does India Today here and Business Insider here But the Nepali source we currently have seems to say 28 February. Which is correct? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:20, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
