About Know The Gems

Know The Gems helps you discover the people who shape our world – actors, musicians, athletes, leaders, scientists, creators and many more. Every profile brings together a short biography, key facts like age, birthday and zodiac sign, family, awards, official social media links and a popularity trend.

Where does the information come from?

Profiles are assembled automatically and kept up to date from open knowledge projects:

• Wikipedia – biographies and images (text licensed CC BY-SA 4.0).
• Wikidata – structured facts such as dates, places, awards and social handles (CC0).
• Wikimedia Pageviews – daily popularity and trending data.

If you notice incorrect information, the best way to fix it for everyone is to improve the source article on Wikipedia or Wikidata. You can also contact us.
