Birth date can't be right

[edit]

It's pretty obvious to anyone with eyes that Chad Coleman was not 29 years old when he filmed season 3 of The Wire, which he would have been if the 1974 birthdate is accurate. For more objective info:

  • Coleman claims that as he was planning to attend college, the Reagan administration changed rules on student funding. If he was born in 1974 and graduated high school at age 18, then he wouldn't have been applying for financial aid for college until 1992, almost four years after Reagan left office. See: https://www.hobotrashcan.com/2008/02/07/one-one-one-with-chad-coleman/
  • All references to Coleman's high school years state that he attended Armstrong-Kennedy High School in Richmond. Armstrong-Kennedy only existed from fall 1979 to spring 1986. He could not have attended the school at all during normal high school age if he was born in 1974. see: https://www.rvaschools.net/Page/668
WP:IMDB is not a reliable source. You don't need to disprove IMDB, it should not be used for dates of birth and should have been removed already.
If you a reliable source with a specific date of birth cannot be found then it his date of birth may need to be removed entirely from the article. -- 109.76.200.55 (talk) 06:01, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Chad ColemanChad L. Coleman – Actor is overwhelmingly credited, and known, as "Chad L. Coleman". Indeed, it looks like most refs used at the article refer to "Chad L. Coleman". So this is his WP:COMMONNAME. --IJBall (contribstalk) 15:44, 4 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. >>> Extorc.talk 11:52, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support per nom. The vast majority of credits and sources refer to him with the L. It's his twitter handle/username, too. His instagram is "Chad Coleman", but the handle is still chadlcoleman. Nohomersryan (talk) 21:09, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
