  • 22:4122:41, 12 September 2023 diff hist −103 Jake LacyRemoved unnecessary language, not appropriate for encyclopedia content. Separated sentence that had an unnecessary semicolon. Periods and commas are the workhorses of the English language and should be punctuation of first choice. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 18:4518:45, 22 August 2023 diff hist −406 Derrick HenrySince 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. MooreRemoved unnecessary word. The word "previously" is almost never needed, if ever. When you make the verb past tense, that indicates "previously." Also removed a comma. A simple compound sentence does not need a comma. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 20:2920:29, 14 August 2023 diff hist −68 Walter PidgeonRemoved editorial content, specifically "...that his popularity reached its height." That is when Pidgeon's popularity was at its height? Says who? There is no source for such a statement, which makes it an editorial comment, which is never allowed. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 20:2520:25, 14 August 2023 diff hist −892 Walter PidgeonRemoving editorialized content. Recast sentences to reflect proper Encyclopedia style. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 20:1120:11, 14 August 2023 diff hist −56 Walter PidgeonCorrected content to conform to encyclopedia style. Tip to editors: never write "as well as." "And" is always the preferred use. Never used three words when one word is sufficient. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 20:0820:08, 14 August 2023 diff hist −38 Walter PidgeonRemoved unnecessary content. 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
  • 20:0020:00, 14 August 2023 diff hist −93 Walter PidgeonRemoved unnecessary con tent, and corrected grammar. Added a location and corrected a style error. 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.

  • 21:1321:13, 6 August 2023 diff hist +1 Dan HaggertyRestructured the awards list, so it was in a form that made sense to the reader. 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. I am digging deeply to try to substantiate them, even emailing the founders and/or presidents of the organizations involved. I hope I will be able to verify then.

  • 17:1117:11, 18 July 2023 diff hist −33 Phil LynottRemoved inclusion of the attendance of a particular person at the funeral for this subject. According to all I have read, there were many people at that funeral. The only time where it would be appropriate to acknowledge a person's attendance over others would be if that person was a head of state. Otherwise, it's just another person attending a funeral.

Removed a sentence that is a conclusion or observation drawn by the editor, which violates Wikipedia's original research rule. This article is vastly in need of sources.

  • 23:0223:02, 30 May 2023 diff hist −94 Dolores MoranI got confused on my previous edit. There was so much time that elapsed between when I made the edit and when I saved it that I forgot whose article it was. Please forgive my mistake. My edits here were for tightening the text in keeping with proper encyclopedia style. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 22:5922:59, 30 May 2023 diff hist −615 Dolores MoranRemoved content that was not supported in the source given. Removed some content that is not important enough for this article. The affair between Hawks and Moran should be in their Wikipedia articles. It may be true that Hawks' affair was the result of being snubbed by Bacall, but that is not important. Articles are to be summaries of subjects, according to Wikipedia MOS. The MOS says specifically that we don't include facts just because we have them.

  • 23:1123:11, 20 April 2023 diff hist −22 They'll Know We Are ChristiansRemoved a leak to the word "non-believers" which directed the reader to the Wikipedia page regarding "infidels." Not all religions refer to nonbelievers as "infidels." I will also address that bad redirect. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 23:0923:09, 20 April 2023 diff hist −136 They'll Know We Are ChristiansRestructured some sentences to conform to encyclopedia style. Removed a sentence that indicated what inspired this song, given the fact that it referenced only a single verse of Scripture. Unless the author indicated what his inspiration was, we are in no position to assume. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 14:4714:47, 27 March 2023 diff hist −77 LaTanya Richardson JacksonI added some links, removed some links. Removed reference to her husband being in her directorial debut, as it takes away from her on achievement, and this article was about her. Also added his full name in a paragraph. Although his full name is mentioned in another section, each section in in Wikipedia must be written as a stand-alone section. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 14:3514:35, 27 March 2023 diff hist −22 LaTanya Richardson JacksonRemove the word "historically" that is a vague time reference and offers no real information. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 14:3414:34, 27 March 2023 diff hist −358 LaTanya Richardson JacksonRemoved notation that she and Jackson have been married for 50 years and the Instagram post that was its source. First, Instagram is not a proper source, and second, any person intelligent enough to look up and read information and read it is intelligent enough to do the math. Also paraphrased a quotation, which is the preferred method of presenting information in an encyclopedia. Tags: references removed Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 05:3005:30, 10 March 2023 diff hist −39 Nate BargatzeRestructured sentence to properly reflect encyclopedia style. Encyclopedia style is not the same style as biographies, press releases or website content. When writing for encyclopedias, we write only the facts. We are not here to entertain. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 05:2805:28, 10 March 2023 diff hist −1,250 Nate BargatzeRemoved peacock language and unnecessary content. If this subject attended college, for only one semester, it is hardly newsworthy to reference what classes he took. Tags: references removed Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

She is also not related - that I know of - to Roger Moore, Bill Moore, Daniel Moore, Melba Moore...this could go on forever. We occasionally, when there is some compelling reason to do so, mention people to whom the subject IS related. What we don't do is list people to whom the subject is NOT related. Those lists could go on for eternity! Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 07:5107:51, 4 March 2023 diff hist +2 Beth MooreFixed capitalization error. Did something I never do: created a quote. This is one of those rare times when a quote needs to be created to avoid what appeared to be peacock language. If we are going to say Moore "is one of the most prominent..." then it needs to be attributed to someone through a quote and proper citation. Will probably be another 12-13 years before I create another quote. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 21:1321:13, 9 January 2023 diff hist −10 Sue Monk KiddWe don't use the word "currently" in encyclopedia writing. When you use present-tense verbs, that informs the reader that the information is happening now. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 06:1206:12, 9 January 2023 diff hist −70 Mike McDanielEditors cannot unilaterally declare someone "...an offensive-minded coach." A Wikipedia editor does not know what type of mind someone has and is in no position to make that kind of discernment. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

The only information under that heading is regarding misuse of the drug, so that should be the heading. Actually, one or two sentences draws into question as to whether there needs to be a separate section for misuse at all. Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 20:4120:41, 7 January 2023 diff hist −24 Michael ShannonNever write that an actor appeared in a "minor" role. That is a subjective call and we, as editors, are in no position to determine what is a minor role and what is not. Tags: Visual edit Mobile edit Mobile web edit

Removed some references to co-stars of films. This article is about Michael Shannon, and the characters and films in which he appears. There are certainly dozens of actors who could be listed as costars in each of his films. The only relevant information is that HE was in the films, not other cast and/or crew members. that information should be reserved for their Wikipedia articles.
