Disambiguation link notification for July 6

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rebecca Robinson (Miss Texas), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Miss Congeniality. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

A barnstar for you!

The Writer's Barnstar
Thank you for your excellent work in creating articles for the Miss America 2016 class! If you need any details (DOB's, etc.), or any assistance with any of these articles, please let me know! Ejgreen77 (talk) 15:00, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Response

Nothing "official," no. And, nothing that can be sourced, most of the time, unfortunately. But, I do have plenty of contacts in the MAO community, and I can probably get you at least something for most of the contestants, if you want it. Some states like Texas, for example, do a pretty good job of putting records online, so in those cases, things can be confirmed through those "official" channels. For others, it's just word-of-mouth type of stuff, unfortunately. For the other stuff, the MAO used to release things like height, weight, dress sizes, etc. for contestants, but that stopped circa 2000 or so amid rampant political correctness (and rabid Feminazisim). Finding that kind of stuff for today's contestants is really hard, unless the contestant is trying to launch a modeling/acting career, in which case it will sometimes be available through those channels. Ejgreen77 (talk) 19:36, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

I'm not interested in rapidly shifting numbers like weight, dress size, and the other modeling stuff, but basic identifying things like height, hair color, and eye color should be added where possible. Birthdates are vital biographical data for all articles about people. Any assistance you can provide filling in those infobox blanks would be appreciated. - Dravecky (talk) 21:26, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
No problem, I'll take a look through them and see if I can come up with anything. Ejgreen77 (talk) 23:10, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
