What's with the reverts

Why is someone reverting information of the article without even "stooping down" to the level of including a reason in the edit summary? (the second time, not the first) Please, User:Risker and/or User:Alison, I'd like to see the Wikipedia policy that supports the removal of properly sourced, obviously relevant content out of articles, and then the reverting of that information's re-insertion without an edit summary.

Much of what you wished to include has now been removed, as the reference sources do not support what you have written. Much of this is original research as well. Just as importantly, much of this is trivial detail that has an impact on the lives of non-notable individuals. Illeana Douglas is a notable actress. The rest of her immediate family (parents and siblings) are not notable. Risker (talk) 03:31, 11 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

References 1 and 7 state that her grandmother was California congresswoman and Senate candidate Helen Gahagan Douglas, not Melvyn Douglas' first wife, artist Rosalind Hightowe.Shipsview (talk) 13:10, 11 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Illeana Douglas is an entertainer

Illeana Douglas is an entertainer. Content about her professional work is notable and appropriately included in Illeana Douglas; details of her personal life, her ethnic background, the names and addresses of her relatives are not. They are intrusions into her personal privacy. User:Fred Bauder Talk 17:43, 11 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

She did a long interview on Kevin Pollak's Chat Show (http://www.kevinpollakschatshow.com/archive/?cat=214). For example, she mentioned that she's been on Politically Incorrect. David Spector (talk) 20:55, 20 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Date of birth

Illeana Hesselberg was probably born in 1961.

On page 105 of the 1979 Opticon yearbook for Addam Killingworth High School, a photo of Illeana Hesselberg is displayed in the lower left-hand corner as a graduating senior: https://www.classmates.com/yearbooks/Haddam-Killingworth-High-School/82172?page=105 Shipsview (talk) 09:41, 11 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

classmates.com is not a reliable secondary source. Elizium23 (talk) 13:26, 11 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Maybe, but is the Yearbook acceptable? Shipsview (talk) 12:42, 13 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
I would say that the yearbook itself is sufficient to confirm that Douglas attended Addam Killingworth High School. To suggest that she was a certain age at the time the photograph was published, in absence of concrete data such as birth date, is WP:SYNTH. Elizium23 (talk) 14:58, 13 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
