Sarcoidosis only rarely affects the brain; it is generally a disease of the lung and skin (although it may affect virtually every organ). Saying that it "attacks" the CNS (only heart attacks attack) is misrepresentation. It is also often self-limiting and not "incurable". JFW | T@lk  22:44, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Irish-Amesrican
Her surname is Irish. Wikipedia no longer has the rule about a person needing to SELF-identify as an Irish-American, for example in an interview. The Category:Irish-Americans page is now a repository for all those of Irish-descent, i.e. those with an Irish surname and not necessarily those that self identify.

I wasn't able to immediately find a cite for this, but I'm pretty sure that Duffy was the "Charlie Girl" (spokesmodel for "Charlie" the fragrance) for a time, during the 90s. Also, she was a reporter for American Journal (a syndicated news journal show hosted by Nancy Glass) at one time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.30.79.193 (talk) 04:56, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Year of birth
Her year of birth was changed by an anon IP back in 2011, with no explanation. IMBd has the year as 1961, but I found lots of ghits saying 1962 - A lot of these probably used Wikipedia as a source. Does anyone have a definitive reference to her year of birth? Periglio (talk) 00:01, 18 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Since we don't have a reliable source, and it's been contested by the IP, I've removed it per WP:BLP. Dismas |(talk) 00:53, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I changed the year from 1962 (an unexplained/unsourced edit) to 1961, which matches the source cited in the infobox. A newspaper from May 23, 2003, says that Duffy was 42 on that date. Subtraction indicates that her birth year was 1961. Eddie Blick (talk) 02:38, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

 * What is the source for that date?
 * WP:BLPPRIVACY specifies, "Wikipedia includes full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public." If you have a published, reliable source for that date, feel free to add it with the accompanying citation. Eddie Blick (talk) 03:00, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
