Re: ASIC business registration
You mentioned this as the reason for stating Belle Gibson's birthdate but then didn't cite the reference in the article. Belle Gibson is a WP:BLP which means that stated claims about her need to be backed up or sourced from reliable published sources. I have included a 'how to fill out complete references' down below.

Adding references can be easy
Hello! Here's how to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain the Wikipedia policy of verifiability.

Adding well formatted references is actually quite easy:
 * 1) While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "Cite". Click on it.
 * 2) Then click on "Templates".
 * 3) Choose the most appropriate template and fill in as many details as you can. This will add a well formatted reference that is helpful in case the web URL (or "website link") becomes inactive in the future.
 * 4) Click on Preview when you're done filling out the 'Cite (web/news/book/journal)' to make sure that the reference is correct.
 * 5) Click on Insert to insert the reference into your editing window content.
 * 6) Click on Show preview to Preview all your editing changes.
 * Before clicking on Save page, check that a References header  ==References==  is near the end of the article.
 * And check that    is directly underneath that header.
 * 7.Click on Save page. ...and you've just added a complete reference to a Wikipedia article.

You can read more about this on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv.

 * When you add a reference to a Wikipedia article, please consult the above instructions on how to fill out a complete citation. Bare URLs are not very much help when
 * 1) readers want to verify information and
 * 2) when readers want to assess if information comes from a reliable source. They are also prone to linkrot which makes it difficult to maintain the Wikipedia policy of Verifiability.
 * At the end of a sentence, please put the period before you add a reference.
