Birthplace[edit]

I've done a few searches and cannot find anything about she being born in Vancouver. Anyone have a source for it?--Bacteria 20:11, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Birthdate[edit]

"Reported on her Facebook page on Tuesday January 25, 2011 that she "celebrated her birthday on the weekend catching up with some great friends from BSG." so her birthday is likely in late January."

^ Above edit was originally posted in article. I cut it out as it can not be verified. However I placed it here as someone else may be interested in it.--Obsidi♠n^Soul 00:19, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also as a side-note... I'm curious why that editor had to rely on her status message when her birthday is displayed rather prominently on the info panel in her facebook. It's January 22. Though not sure about the year. Probably 1981, from another source.--Obsidi♠n^Soul 00:40, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Chiming in after five years -- (but who's counting?) -- I'd hazard that the editor simply overlooked the info panel. Nobody's perfect. GcT (talk) 16:55, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation of name?[edit]

I have never seen the name "Rekha," and I'm wondering how it's pronounced. I wouldn't mind if Ms. Sharma herself would provide the information, which would qualify it as coming from the ultimate authoritative source -- although, paradoxically and whimsically, I suspect that she would count as an Original Source, so that this article would need a real secondary source for a valid citation. -- GcT (talk) 17:11, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Uncited material in need of citations[edit]

I am moving the following material here until it can be properly supported with reliable, secondary citations, per WP:V, WP:CS, WP:IRS, WP:PSTS], WP:BLP, WP:NOR, et al. Nightscream (talk) 20:14, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
