Birth and marriage edit

There are claims that Vickers was born in Strathalen, and others that she (just) grew up in Edinburgh. There is a reliable ref for birth in Edinburgh but none for Strathalen, except on unreliable places like Pinterest. There are sites mentioning her 2017 marriage to Kerr Logan... I think this is patently true, but there are no reliable sources I can find for this, so it should be left out of the article until one is found. Acabashi (talk) 01:23, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

I have found a record of her birth in 1985 in Strathaven via ScotlandsPeople. I will add the details and citation. Softlavender (talk) 03:57, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
The preview on ScotlandsPeople only gives the birth year and place. If the exact date is desired one can order a copy of the birth certificate from them; the cost is around £12.00. The link to the site, which requires a sign-up of email and password, is here: [1]. -- Softlavender (talk) 04:13, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Re: Marriage: We have an official statement by Vickers on Twitter about her husband, and confirmation of the date on Twitter by the ceilidh band, so I added the marriage to the article. Twitter is considered a reliable source for simple, obvious statements of fact by the party in question. Softlavender (talk) 04:35, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
