I am just reading Kathy Staff's autobiography My Story: Wrinkles and All. It is very clear that she chose the surname Brant as a stage name as opposed to the incorrect one of Grant which appears on Internet Movie Database and various newspapers covering her death. The Guardian has it correct http://www.guardian.co.uk/culture/2008/dec/15/kathy-staff-nora-batty-obituary 3planks 22 July 2009
 * Bring it to the talk page and let editors discuss the Guardian is certainly a reliable source best BigDunc  20:57, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Surely her autobiography is reliable? 3planks 22 July 2009
 * I have not read it and in all honesty don't know anything about her that is why I suggest you ask on the talk page. BigDunc  21:05, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I didn't either which is why I am reading her autobiography. I was misled by the incorrect name on Wikipedia so thought I would rectify the error. Have posted on the talk page as you suggested. 3planks (talk) 21:11, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Unlucky with the competition any questions just ask on my talk page all the best. BigDunc  21:40, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, 3planks! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on or by typing helpme at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! BigDunc 21:04, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
