I think the reality is that IF JW is film canon, AND JW shows his bday to be 1913, then it's 1913 in Film Canon. Period.

As for 1928, if that's from Trespasser, then it is TRESPASSER Canon, not Film canon.

Thing are not that easy. there are a lot of props from previous film that contradict the film's timeline and are considered movie mistakes.

The MasraniGlobal website IS an official JW website, wether fans were hired for its creation or not does not matter. Trevorrow himself said that things on the MasraniGlobal site are canon in a JW Podcast.

So, we just do not know. No need to be dogmatic about any year. Period.
