Sachin Joab - Unknown year of birth

I saw that Wikepedia has notated Sachin Joab's year of birth as 1978. I have searched articles, columns, reviews, interviews and have been unable to uncover his year of birth. I have also checked the references on his Wikipedia page and besides a couple of them not working, the remaining references are unable to substantiate his year of birth. Therefore Sachin Joab's year of birth is in fact inconclusive. The current year of birth stating he was born in 1978 has not been documented or authenticated. Sachin Joab also has not verified his year of birth to any media source or outlet which can be substantiated. To suggest a random year of birth is misleading.

Sachin Joab's place of birth being Melbourne Australia has been documented and he himself has validated this within interviews. However, no such evidence has been corroborated in reference to his year of birth. Therefore I would like to edit his profile by removing his year of birth.

In the 'Early Life' section it states that "Joab's parents immigrated from India to Australia in 1977 and Joab was born the following year". His parents migration is true but his year of birth is unfounded. The unvalidated line (".....Joab was born the following year") should be removed until it can be reinstated with a verified reference.

I've found an article from the Herald Sun where he gave an interview stating that his year of birth is 1978. I've added that reference to the article. As per WP:RS they can be counted.--5 albert square (talk) 22:44, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

There are currently three sources within the article giving his date of birth as 1978. They are the actor's online CV, a Herald Sun article, and an article from the official Neighbours website. - JuneGloom07 Talk 15:56, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Also see discussion at User_talk:JuneGloom07#Sachin_Joab_-_year_of_birth. At the time of posting the Herald Sun article and the Showcast sources both gave his birth year as 1978. The Herald Sun still shows the birth year in the Google description of the article. - JuneGloom07 Talk 00:09, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Yes, indeed it does. I've taken a screenshot of the description Google gives of the article and I'm more than happy to provide it if necessary for a reference. Daniel, for future reference, if you wish to discuss the article this would be the correct talk page to discuss it on. Oh and FYI, if a username ends in the "bot" suffix, example ClueBot NG, ClueBot III, DumbBOT etc the user is not human.--5 albert square (talk) 00:28, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
