Date of photograph

edit

Was the photograph in this article's infobox taken in November 2011? I know that's what [1] indicates, but this source implies that it was taken in September that year. This source also makes the November dating dubious. Toccata quarta (talk) 13:58, 23 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

possible rs for marital status update..

edit

i noticed the comment in this articles code about finding a reliable third party source before updating marital status..

i dont really know exactly whats acceptable and what isnt, but here is an article on elle.se, where she details her wedding with pictures included. im not sure if it counts as third party per se, since it appears to be written in interview style.. i guess that would be what, second party maybe? i dont really know, im just doing what i can here, trying to make a contribution that isnt just a copy edit..

i also found this article, which contains this video of her on the kelly clarkson show, mentioning her recent marriage. again, since its coming out of her mouth in an interview, i dont know if we can actually use it.

im never really sure whats acceptable and what isnt in these situations. all i know is that it seems like sourcing sources can be kind of tricky sometimes, so i just prefer to proceed with a bit of caution and ask the talk page first, rather than possibly making an incorrect assumption and having my work reverted.

if someone wants to weigh in on whether or not these sources are valid, please ping me so i recieve a notification when i log in, in case i forget to check this for a while. id like to know if what i put forward was acceptable or not, and if not, understand why not and how i might do better in the future.

also, if these sources are in fact valid, i dont have any problem if whomever makes that decision would like to go ahead and apply the update to the article. i dont like "need" this edit to survive or anything, im perfectly happy just knowing if i found a decent source or not.

thank you for your time! Snarevox (talk) 06:02, 25 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Snarevox. I think the Elle Sweden article appears to be reliable. I don't believe Elle magazine is considered "unreliable". As a magazine, it seems to be cited for various information on BLPs on Wikipedia. So I'll add that.
What I won't add is the claims of her alleged first divorce to Rechlin. In 2017, an IP user added an unsourced claim of her being "divorced" in 2017, without adding any reliable sources whatsoever.[2] This claim appears to have been unchallenged/not reverted for the longest time. Unless we get specific confirmation from Gustavsson herself, I suspect that any source claim they divorced in 2017 could be WP:CIRCULAR editing. I.E - Wikipedia or some source claims something dubious and then it keeps getting reported by reliable sources as "truth". See Brazilian model Adriana Lima, who has had to clarify that despite what Wikipedia and other websites claim, her name is not "Adriana Francesca Lima". Clear Looking Glass
Since I don't see anything about Sweden allowing bigamy/polygamy, with some rules about those who immigrated from countries that allow bigamy/polygamy. But that does not apply to her as she Swedish in birth, ethnicity and citizenship. She appears to have married in Sweden and sources provided don't appear to mention of "Hjalmar Rechlin", so it seems safe to assume that the couple have divorced. Now what year is again, the tricky part. (talk) 03:23, 10 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hi @Clear Looking Glass.
thank you for responding, i appreciate it.
it took me a moment to understand what was actually happening, as the way your reply is rendering on my phone, your final paragraph about swedish bigamy/polygamy protocols is appearing between the username portion of your signature and the “(talk)” portion.
the source looks normal with the normal signature code at the bottom, so i really dont know why im seeing it that way. its not a big deal, it just took me a second to figure out what your name was.
if im understanding correctly, you decided not to add the 2017 divorce due to lack of WP:RS. you made it clear at the beginning of your reply, but in the final paragraph, you asked what year it was again, causing me to wonder if perhaps you changed your mind??
im just trying to confirm whether or not youre planning to add the divorce as is, if not i will try to track down a better source when i have some free time. thanks again!
