To counter all your points, I've compiled this list. Because your post lacked any structure, you may need to mix and match.
 * 1) Both comics are published by DC.
 * 2) Yes, we list both.
 * 3) The we is us. The majority of the admins (especially MrBlonde) prefers historical perspective over ignoring anything but the most recent version. Because all the info was valid, once. The only divergence from this is the Statistics Policy, which uses the most recent data for practical reasons.
 * 4) I never claim to be infallible. It was an oversight, they happen. If you look at the other dates, you'll see the information from the calendar is linked to the pre-Crisis version. Thank you for pointing it out, I corrected it now.
 * 5) We're not everyone else. We don't disregard it.
 * 6) Without a paper trail, "I totally met that guy at a con" is not a valid source, whether it's true or not.
 * 7) If we are talking trivia, his birthday was once mentioned as late October, and once as the first day of spring.
 * 8) We are well aware we don't have many written down policies, but that doesn't mean there aren't any. We don't make them up as we go along, we look at what's sensible.
 * 9) Secret Origins was retelling of his origin in the wake of the Crisis. The stories in that series were later either expanded or ignored. Just because they were ignored (deliberately or because they didn't know) doesn't mean the content magically disappears.
 * 10) Chuck Dixon crafted Nightwing in the nineties, he didn't create him, doesn't own him, or have the monopoly on his backstory.
 * 11) The most recent date is March 21. The date before that, late October. We list both.
 * 12) I don't have all the answers. Do you?
 * 13) Don't you FUCKING DARE call Denny O'Neil a nobody.
 * 14) Secret Origins was New Earth continuity when it came out. Young Justice was an alternate universe from the start. Also, you could've picked December 1st, that's Dick's birthday in YJ.
