Could not find exact birth date anywhere on the web. I cited a newspaper that said he was 29 in 1968, so determined he was born in 1939, exact day unknown. I am not sure of the proper way to approach this situation. Overglobe (talk) 00:28, 7 January 2018 (UTC)overglobeReply

Per guideline MOS:APPROXDATE, write "(born 1938 or 1939)" - if he was born later in '38 than the day of the year of the newspaper article in '68, then he would not yet have reached his 30th birthday, he would have been 29 when it was written. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:39, 15 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
