Jan Goossenaerts[edit]

please help with this article, they are trying to delete it. Longevitydude (talk) 15:43, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jan/Joannes Goossenaerts[edit]

Is "Jan" his proper first name or just his shorter name? Because if it's a nickname of sorts, it should be in quotation marks in his article... Brendan (talk, contribs) 10:30, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jan is his nick. Joannes is his real name Peter 11:02, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you...[edit]

for correcting my error. If you can read Estonian, would you please put the Estonian footnotes into a format that's of some use to English-speakers? Thanks again. David in DC (talk) 20:11, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I used google translator to read the article. I am not speaking Estonian. Sorry. But thanks anyways. Petervermaelen (talk) 20:18, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good idea. Thanks. David in DC (talk) 21:35, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

List of oldest people in the world[edit]

Hi. Why did you revert my edits on List of oldest people in the world? I found that Abbas Koca was born in 1891 and is the oldest living person in Turkey and in the world. His age can be seen on his identity card.[1]Video In the video, he also says that he fought in the WWI in 1915 at his 20s. -Hürrem (talk) 05:29, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The list is a verified list from and for Guiness WR and the GRG group.

To be recognized and approoved on the list someone needs to submit 3 documents to Guiness WR (3 documents equals 3 stars): - An ID card - An original copy of his marriage certificate or any other original copy prooving he was alive in between his birthday and today - An original copy of his birth certificate

This case is a 1 star case. Not a 3 star case.
