Richard Morea vs Richard Morea vs Gerald Tomasso DeLuise

Is Young's real name actually Richard Morea? The citation in _Italian Americans: The History and Culture of a People_ doesn't list anyone names Morea, according to a GBooks search. In fact, other sources give his name as Gerald DeLuise or Jerry DeLuise.

Richard Morea is, however, the name of the child of Gloria Morea. Richard was stabbed to death by his mother in 1972, as noted in an NYT article that says that Richard's father is an actor and former boxer. Richard might be Young's son. Wikipedia doesn't mention this, but some sources do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.48.173.79 (talk) 05:41, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Does a reliable source say Burt Young's birth name was Richard Morea Sr?
Does a reliable source say Burt Young had a son named Richard Morea Jr?
Does a reliable source connect Burt Young to the people and events in the NY Times article? (The article does not name the victim's father.)

So far, you haven't shown anything that should be allowed in a Wikipedia article. -- Pemilligan (talk) 14:53, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
