Happened to be looking at a wikipedia page for someone whose birthday is today, but the auto calculation seems to be out.
I doubt she's wearing a "31 today" badge, anyway.
Wait!, what? Wikipedia date?

My avatar was a scientific result that was later found to be 'mistaken' - I rarely claim to be 100% correct
ETA 5/8/20: I've been advised that the result was correct, it was the initial interpretation that needed to be withdrawn
Meta? I'd say so!

Weirdly, I've just tried editing and previewing without any changes, and it updated to 32, when the original page shows 31. I've obviously not committed the edit as I haven't changed anything.
My thought was that it depended on the which TZ "Wikipedia" exists in, but it would now have to be ~20:30 before GMT, which wouldn't happen even with a fractally convoluted Date Line.

Well, Bo Derek (born 20 Nov '58) is showing as still being 62 today.
But I've looked at two people born on 19 Nov, and one is showing the correct age, and the other is showing the 'year earlier' age.
Odd.

It's probably cached somewhere.
Re: Wait!, what? Wikipedia date?
I tried a 'Ctrl+F5', but it didn't shift it.
I then 'published' the page as an edit (without having changed anything) and it's showing "age 32" now. However the 'mobile' page is still showing '31', so you're probably right.

Ctrl+F5 is just for your local cache. There's probably caching server-side for things like derived content.

I thought they'd started a dating service. It would be great, you could edit them if they turned out to be horrible.
Just tell 'em I'm broke and don't come round here no more.
