Can any editor please respond this to this request here on this talk page? Thank you.
1. In regards to the show Weeds, it states that Meital was in 6 episodes when she was in 7 episodes as Yael Hoffman. Those episodes were “God Willing and the Creek Don’t Rise” (2012), “Must Find Toes” (2006), “Crush Girl Love Panic” (2006), "A.K.A. The Plant” (2006), “Last Tango in Argestic” (2006), “Cooking With Jesus” (2006) and “Corn Snake” (2006). References:
2. In regards to Meital’s age sources cite August 24, 1976 when it should be August 24, 1979. References:
3. In regards to the song, On Ya featuring Sean Kingston, the song was released on June 6, 2012 and the music video on October 14, 2012. References:
4. In 2011 Meital released her book Love & Other Bad Habits. The third edition of the book was donated to the “Ladies Circle” organization. Reference:
5. Producer Rami Afuni has not only produced for Dohan but for Kiesza and Lady Gaga. References:

Edit request partially implemented
The third edition was donated to the Ladies Circle. The subject should specify what of the edition was donated, be it physical copies of the edition, profits from the edition, a percentage of profits from the edition, etc.
The actress, who turns 30 on Thursday, has a recurring role on critically-acclaimed Showtime drama Weeds, in which she plays Yael Hoffman opposite series stars Mary-Louise Parker and Elizabeth Perkins.That source was published August 22, 2006. With regards to the 11 sources provided for 1979 as the YOB, these are all variants of a single article published in 2018 by PageSix which addresses the subject dating Al Pacino and whose story details come from what PageSix describes as "an insider". Over time, the other outlets picked up on and then reported the PageSix story. None of these outlets added any original reporting to the story. Rather than 11 sources as is shown, there is actually only one source. [a] In light of this, I'm not prepared to change the date of the subject's birth, because at this time the Jerusalem Post outweighs all of these other articles which may have originated from a single publicist (the "insider" mentioned by PageSix). Additional reliable sources would be helpful in making a better determination. The issues with each subject-provided reference giving the YOB are shown below:

You state that “the most reliable sourcing” regarding Ms. Dohan’s age is the 2006 article from the Jerusalem Post. However, here is a subsequent article from same publication, the Jerusalem Post, dated May 28, 2013 which provided Ms. Dohan’s correct age:
“Known as Meital Dohan in the world of cinema, TV and theater both in Israel and the United States, the 33-year-old performer turned a new corner in her career three years ago when, back in Israel from Los Angeles, she was advised by her spiritual guide to ‘return immediately and become a singer.’”
As you can see, as subsequently reported by the Jerusalem Post (per Wikipedia – the most reliable sourcing), Ms. Dohan was 33 years old in 2013, which corroborates Ms. Dohan’s 1979 birthrate.
See below for more sourcing for the correct age.
"The actress, who is about half his age (she is 40 and he is 79)" [2]
"Now Dohan, 33, is back with another fun beat, “On Ya,” with Jamaican-American rapper Sean Kingston. 2013" [3]
"Dohen is not alone. Her dream man showed up, in the premiere but whatever. Dohan, 39, got to know El Pacino, 78,. 12.25.2018" [4]

Her age is incorrect. Please remove "Meital Dohan (Hebrew: מיטל דוהן; born August 24, 1979)" and just continue the article without her age.
I'm a little confused by the error with her age and the reluctance to fix it. Everything seems to be referenced back to her appearance in the Sopranos in 2006 and a piece in the Jerusalem Post here. From what I can find, every time that the JPost has used Dohan's age since then it traces back to her being born in 1979, not 1976. Examples are here and here. Added to that, when her relationship with Al Pacino ended, there was a lot of coverage speaking solely about the age gap between the two, putting Dohan at 40, not 43. I've used 4 strong references to backup her date of birth. Here are a number of other references:
The Independent, Times of Israel, Jerusalem Post, The Times, Fox News, Heavy.com, Evening Standard and The Mercury News LondonNews ( talk) 16:01, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
I have been blocked from Meital Dohan's page when in fact I do PR for the actress.[7] (Please note Wikipedia's requirements for paid editors.) Cheers, gnu 57 20:04, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
I've just removed the date of birth as the age issue has come around again. The references last cited are all about the 40 year age gap between her and 79-year-old Pacino, but without giving a date of birth. The article subject and her representatives take issue with the 1976 birth date, noting that the 2006 Jerusalem Post article which was the source of that date has been retracted, although the archived version is still available. Unless and until we can find truly reliable source to cite for a birth date, how about just leaving it out? Comments and references welcome! Geoff | Who, me? 00:26, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
