Talk:Kate Baer

Message for Kate
Hello, Kate! I've removed what you wrote on the DYK nomination page, since that isn't really a good place to talk. You are correct that information added to Wikipedia article require an external reference. Though for basic biographical information like that you listed (maiden name, birthday, ect), we can use a primary source such as the subject. But it has to actually be written down somewhere that can be referenced. Does your website have an about page that includes such info? Silver seren C 16:43, 24 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Kate you said "Hi, this is Kate. I have no idea how to use this template. WikiWomenInRed directed me here. I am happy to provide accurate information, though I believe it must come from a third party. My real name is Kathrine Baer (maiden name Baker). My birthday is 3.31.85. My list of press is here: https://www.katebaer.com/press."


 * Kate, here! is a fine place to talk, just type below. Wikipedia won't use ppl or their blogs or emails or facebook pages as reliable sources. They need a reliable 3rd party source (like the NYTimes or the BBC) to say the information. This avoids people lying/misrepresenting their age, their mate's space trips, their parent's encounters with aliens etc etc. It also meand that we should only write about notable people because the BBC may have mentioned my name .... but they never reported my life story.
