Walt Disney
There is an error on the Walt Disney page. How do I correct it if it is "locked". Here is the correction if somebody else can fix it.

Walt Disney was born on December 5, 1901, at 1249 Tripp Avenue, in Chicago's Hermosa neighborhood.[a] He was the fourth son of Elias Disney‍—‌born in the Province of Canada, to Irish parents‍—‌and Flora (née Call), an American of German and English descent.[3][4][b]

There is NO " Province of Canada ". Canada is a country made up of 10 provinces ( like states ) and 3 territories. This is an ambiguous statement akin to saying Disney was from the State of the USA. Sydnick44 (talk) 15:06, 24 February 2018 (UTC)


 * It comes down to when Elias Disney was born. If he was born between 1841 and 1867, then he was born in the Province of Canada. I don't see a reason to use an alternate name like the United Canadas instead. —C.Fred (talk) 15:15, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

Disney
Correct would be to say his father was from Bluevale Ontario, CANADA Sydnick44 (talk) 15:11, 24 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Nope, neither Ontario nor "Canada" existed at the time. If you want to be more specific than the Province of Canada, he was born in Canada West. —C.Fred (talk) 15:20, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
