DOB
Finadgrave isn't a reliable source for that, see this list of sources. Note that for living people we rarely provide the full dob unless it's well known. See WP:BLPDOB. Doug Weller talk 09:32, 2 December 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Toronto van attack, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Unnecessary edit as the date is in the infobox already.  Johnny Au  (talk/contributions) 00:34, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Relevance
Hello.

Wikipedia editing is not about reporting everything that reliable sources report. We ask whether the information is relevant to the article subject. In mass killing articles, the perpetrator is not the article subject, and we should include only information about the perpetrator that can reasonably be deemed relevant to the mass killing. For example, the perp's place and date of birth and the occupations of his parents do not pass that relevance test. His or her gender and age, on the other hand, are sufficiently relevant to include.

We already violate this principle too much in mass killing articles, but that is not a good reason to do it even more. The existence of bad stuff is never an excuse for more bad stuff. &#8213; Mandruss  &#9742;  06:18, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
