Date formatting edit

@Sarah Tokyo:, as the creator of the article you get to set what dating style it uses. Most Japan-related topics use day-month-year, but American topic usually use month-day-year. This article uses a mixture of several formats, but it would be best if it followed just one. ⑉⑉Mccunicano☕️ 05:30, 20 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Mccunicano: Is it okay to source the early life section using either of these articles? Not sure if it falls under 'tabloid journalism'? Unfortunately, this is the only source I can find about her personal life. https://www.thefamouspeople.com/profiles/akidearest-35543.php or, https://celebslifereel.com/akidearest/ Sarah Tokyo🗼 —Preceding undated comment added 04:05, 21 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

It seems okay since it's not a user-generated database, though it can't verify the specific places she lived in the United States, her jobs before YouTube, her scholarly activities, or her parents having immigrated from the Philippines. So the section will need more sources to verify all that is said in it, but please include this as a reference for her birth-date and being a Filipino-American. Also, please let me know your preferred date format for the article. ⑉⑉Mccunicano☕️ 11:02, 21 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Mccunicano: Hello! It's been a little while, I hope you're well! Would you mind helping me out with this article again? I have a quick question.. Are the requirements to verify the details in Akidearest's early life section just to have a 3rd party (i.e. non user-generated) to write an article, such as an interview, and have it published (i.e. on their website)? There may be an opportunity to have the currently unsourced early life details sourced and wanted to confirm with you since you were very helpful last time! I appreciate your help! Thank you :) Sarah Tokyo🗼

@Sarah Tokyo:, hey there! I'm doing just fine. I hope the same goes for you. I think the best way to answer your query is by directing you to this link: WP:SOURCE. If the opportunity in question meets the standards of reliability outlined there, go for it. ⑉⑉Mccunicano☕️ 12:29, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
