The signature provided is not. Selena’s signature. There are many autographs done by the star that is public and it does not match the one on the page at all. Selena’s signature is very specific and the autograph on this page fails to replicate her signature in many areas 2600:1700:5E98:9570:645B:96F6:2381:EC94 (talk) 13:03, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In paragraph 4, it describes Yolanda as her friend and boutique manger (not the exact words but you get the point) however she was also the manager of Selena’s fan club at one point. DarthNerdy12 (talk) 23:36, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Many sources say that Selena was born in Lake Jackson. Yes, it was her hometown, but she couldn't be born there because the hospital she was born in was in Freeport, not Lake Jackson. Therefore, I don't think the article would consider Lake Jackson to be her birthplace. Chidie345 (talk) 01:32, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Chidie345: The source you provided states that Selena was born in Freeport, not that the hospital where she was born happened to be in Freeport, as you implied. A higher-quality source or additional sources confirming that the hospital was in Freeport or naming the hospital would be better, otherwise, this single source does not satisfy this fringe theory. I won't undo your edit, I believe we can discuss it here and reach a consensus. Best – jona✉16:46, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
