How do I remove personal information from my profile page?
When I registered, several questions were asked that I assumed were required. I don't want personal info available on my public profile. How do I remove available/shown information such as my birthdate?

Level of English/Spanish are obviously relevant to interpreting and responding to questions (and should, I think be required). The question of gender has some relevance (at least for Spanish) because of pronoun/adjective choices. The case for age is even less clear. While it is often true that making reference to events of 30-40 years ago is not likely to resonate with someone who is 13/14 years old, this is not a question of misinformation but of unrecognized references. This needs to be weighed against the possible impact of someone thinking, this is the opinion of "some wet-behind-the-ears teenager" or "some old fa*t with one foot in the grave" (which are, indeed, possible thoughts/reactions but less likely, I suspect, to affect the responses posted).
I think it's helpful to have info such as age, gender, level of Spanish/English in our profiles. It gives me a better idea of who I'm talking to.
To any spanishdict administrator that´s out there, I suggest the birthday no longer be required or at least be able to hide it.
Julaine and Marianne, this is not posible any more. The birthdate is required now.
However, you can lie, of course,
if you would like to check my page....I dare you call me a lier! 
Go back to your profile and you'll see (on the left hand side) a link to "edit my profile." You can leave blank what you don't want displayed.
