Birth year

We apparently need to source Winnick's year of birth. The article currently says 1984, while previous versions had 1977 and 1978. IMDb claims 1977. I don't at this point know what is correct, or if her PR people are trying to sneak a younger age through to get more roles. Having a source that meets WP:RS would be best. -Phoenixrod (talk) 16:34, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Name

I've reverted changes to this subject's name because they were based on unreliable sources. A discussion is ongoing at the Biographies of Living Persons Noticeboard. I encourage general participation here. Cheers! JFHJr (㊟) 02:45, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to know what makes you find Toro magazine as an unreliable source? Lady Lotus (talk) 13:59, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am curious as well. Nymf _{talk to me} 15:26, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Martial arts experience

In the spanish version ow Wikipedia we can reed Miss Winnick had won a silver medal whit the national taekondo team of Canada; (What championship, year, place?) She is black Belt 3 Dan on Taekondo, blak Belt 2 Dan on Karate and bodyguardo with official lisense. ¡It's not a wonder she can performed fine on the battle scenes! But no source. Do you know something more about this?

Official Website

I removed this as this was a false link that lead forwarded visitors on to a self promoting site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.90.72.224 (talk) 19:31, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Birth name discrepancy

Moved from Katheryn Winnick

– Original "message" was posted as hidden text to the main article's 'References' section.

Katheryn's birth name is Katheryn Ann Winnicki, as she states in the Spring 2015 edition of Beauty and Wellness magazine (see page 83 of [1]). Earlier in 2013 a journalist had mis-published her name and it is now a common misconception that her birth name is otherwise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lz9w (talk • contribs) 17:18, August 19, 2016 (UTC)

As this contradicts a current source in the article, we probably need somebody to check on this to verify. In the meantime, as there is now a discrepancy/conflict in regards to her birth name, I'm going to go ahead and boldly remove it from the article for now, as per WP:BLPPRIVACY. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:08, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

For completeness, the sources that give her birth name as "Katerena Anna Vinitska" follow...^[1]^[2] It's worth noting that the second of these explicitly relies on the first source, and thus is of no value to this discussion. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:11, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Her sister, tagged on K. W.'s Instagram, is Daria Winnicki-Goldsmith, which lends weight to 'Winnicki' having been their surname at least at some point; whether it was originally 'Vinitska' is unclear. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.119.38 (talk) 16:49, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:ABOUTSELF – material posted on social media about oneself cannot be used to make "claims about third parties" (e.g. K. Winnick), which would be the case here. So that can't be used either. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:52, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I was more mentioning it 'for the record' by putting it on the talk page than insisting on its inclusion in the article proper anyway, so that's fine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.119.38 (talk) 17:42, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
