- ^ Batio, Michael Angelo [@michaelangelobatioofficial] (June 12, 2023). "Today, June 12th, is my Birthday! I am a true Gemini. A while ago Wikipedia posted that my Birthday was Feb. 23rd! Being the Gemini I am, I thought, great, I have 2 Birthdays every year! Then I tried to change it to my real Birthdate but they said it was already documented as February 23rd! So I left it. That's the story". Retrieved June 12, 2023 – via Instagram.
