Missing information

How does a "biography" not mention its subject's birthdate or parents? --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 22:10, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Because we don't have reliable sources for that information? It's not particularly relevant for the subject's notability in any case. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:16, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
