Orphaned references in Anne-Marie (singer)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Anne-Marie (singer)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 20:45, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

Then

I don’t think “Then” was a single. It wasn’t sent to any radio stations and it wasn’t promoted, and it was a gift for the fans because of Christmas. I think is just a promotional single. SmxkeAndMirrors (talk) 14:25, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

5G theory

Hello everyone, I just wanted to say that the article about 5G theory isn't true. You can go and look at Anne-Marie's twitter and she has never told anything like that. She tweeted about 5G, but there wasn't anything about that coronavirus is caused by 5G. Then one person tweeted that she said that, even when she didn't. Next someone wrote article about this, but I guess that person hasn't looked if this tweet has true information. So please remove it, because that's not true.

Song with our Fat Neek KSI

Please change nothing to that Anne Marie made a song with KSI and Digital Farm Animals, which was the fastest song in 24 hours to reach a million streams on Spotify. 2A00:EE2:1608:63:A4D4:D8BC:42D6:C2C5 (talk) 11:42, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. ‑‑ElHef (Meep?) 16:29, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Use of primary source for chart listing

There's a tag indicating that a primary source shouldn't be used for a chart listing, but I don't think that's against the policy? "A primary source may be used on Wikipedia only to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge" BenjaminChadwick (talk) 14:49, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

You Deserve Better - book

Anne-Marie has released a book called "You Deserve Better". I think it should be also written in her page under the section of Filmography as a different section. I am not really experienced on writting on pages of artists a book they have published and in general that kind of format, especially when it is a singme book, so if someone else could write it for me it would be really helpful. Thank you ~ fenia🖤^tellmehi 10:32, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

Edited in, and her TV special. However, there seems to be an edit war going on removing hard work put into this article. --FinLogger2017 (talk) 13:18, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Year of birth

Some time ago, several people were changing her year of birth, which eventually results in the page being protected. I've done a little research on the subject over the past few weeks, and there is indeed some information that suggests she was born in 1990, not 1991 (even some non-english Wikipedias use both years).

It all comes down to the fact that she was 12 years old when she won medals at the karate championships in 2002.

The Echo Essex published an article on 24 December 2002 that says "The first Tokon Kai gold came from young Anne-Marie Nicholson, 12, who enjoyed individual glory."

The Times article from 29 July 2023 says "Aged nine, she threw herself into karate - so much so that in 2002 when she was 12, she won gold at the UK championships and double gold at the World Championships."

In the first video of her karate series, she said that she started doing karate at the age of 9 and competed at her first world championships 3 years later, and won double gold. A bit later she said it was in Las Vegas when she was twelve. As we know from other sources, the championships were held in 2002. Here are some more sources (not related to Anne-Marie) that confirm it as well.

I will add more sources of her confirming her age when she won double gold in a few minutes (main page).

I couldn't find any article that says she was born in 1990, but this little interview with Daily Mail from 2015 says she 25 at the time (not included as it's Daily Mail), the Gulf Times article from February 2017 gives her age as 26 (she was born on 7 April, so if she was 26 in February 2017, she must have been born in 1990).

Another thing that points out she was born in 1990 is the Company House website. It says she was born in April 1990 but I won't include it as I'm not sure if it's allowed on Wikipedia (let me know if I'm wrong and we can use it). I'm sure her birth certificate would give the same year of birth but I didn't have time to look it up and it's also a primary source.

Regarding the year, I think we should stick with 1991 as it's used in lots of reliable magazines, newspapers, interviews, etc, but I believe the note that I will add should stay there too (I saw such a note used on multiple articles, including Mariah Carey's). Hopefully this will end all the editing wars (once the protection expires). Maybe one day someone will find something else that might change our point of view, but for now I think we don't have any secondary sources that confirm it (what about the Companies House though?). Let me know what you think. Goldlinexy (talk) 20:12, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
