[edit]Hello, I'm Uncle Roy. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Jasmine Simpkins, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Michael Spinks / birth date
[edit]Greetings. I would recommend that you also let BoxRec know about the error, so that they can correct it and avoid future reverts to the Wikipedia article. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 13:44, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- I have changed the date back to July 13th since this is what Encyclopædia Britannica says is correct, see comment on Talk:Michael Spinks. --ツツDyveldi ☯ prat ✉ post 18:38, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- And since you seem to know Spinks publicist [[1]] it would be much appreciated if you could get in touch and tell him that to change the birthdate in Encyclopædia Britannica they probably will ask for a solid reference like for instance Spinks passport or something similar. The The New York Times believed his birthdate was July 13 way back in 1987 so July 13 as Spinks date of birth have been around for very many years. --ツツDyveldi ☯ prat ✉ post 19:37, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

This page should not be deleted. Dave Wooley is a very prominent African American who was a trailblazer in the boxing and promoting business and has gone on to become a respected scholar and teacher to many. And his works with music legend Dionne Warwick speak for themselves. If there are edits that should be made to clean up this page, that should be done. But his significance is noteworthy and he deserves a place on Wikipedia.
