Talk:Louis Armstrong

Date of birth/death
Was his date or birth/death ever mentioned in canon, or are we just adding it because he's a real world person? --| TrekFan Open a channel 22:05, March 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I highly doubt it was mentioned. From what I've seen of other real people in the Trek universe, the date should be limited to the century they were alive in, unless something more specific was mentioned.--31dot 22:47, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah that's what I thought. --| TrekFan Open a channel 22:50, March 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * There was a big convoluted discussion about this a year or two ago, and I think that the consensus was leaning toward just the century and no real birth dates. Having said that, nothing was ever really done from that point and people have consistently added full birth and death dates all over the place. -- sulfur 22:53, March 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Here are some of them:
 * Forum:Question about year articles
 * Forum:Birthdates on in-universe versions of "real world" people?
 * I know that there's another too, but I can't find it. -- sulfur 23:00, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

So do we remove or keep them? --| TrekFan Open a channel 14:05, March 14, 2011 (UTC)
