- 18:4518:45, 22 August 2023 diff hist −406 Derrick Henry Since Wikipedia articles are to be a summary of the facts of the subject, quotations rarely achieve that limited goal. They should be either removed or paraphrased. In this case, paraphrasing was not necessary since the only thing the quote did was to prove what was already sufficiently stated in four simple words in the previous sentence. Also, we need to make efforts to not simply cut, paste and quote information from third parties, but to paraphrase there, also. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
- 18:3618:36, 22 August 2023 diff hist −9 D. J. Moore Removed unnecessary word. The word "previously" is almost never needed, if ever. When you make the verb past tense, that indicates "previously."

We do not have to mention that Pidgeon had two marriages, we simply need only to mention the two marriages and people can count. Also, he did not marry the "former Edna Muriel Pickles." She wasn't the "former" Ms. Pickles until after they married. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

Walter Pidgeon probably died eight days after a lot of people. Simply because someone with whom he had starred died eight days prior to him by is not relevant information.

Just as fair warning, I am researching some of the claims made in this awards list, and I'm having trouble substantiating some. Those that cannot be verified will have to be deleted.
