I find it interesting how there's often more traffic to pages for people involved in notable events (e.g. Derek Chauvin, George Floyd) than the events themselves (e.g. State v. Chauvin, Murder of George Floyd). I suspect the issue is something to do with the way people Google things or the way Google ranks results, but I don't really know what we could do about it. It's an issue, though, because people seemingly aren't finding their way to the most relevant information. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 22:39, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable source for the claim that Charles, Prince of Wales has inherited the title Duke of Edinburgh? I have a source (Whitaker's Almanack 2013, p.40) that says "In June 1999 Buckingham Palace announced that the current Earl of Wessex will be granted the Dukedom of Edinburgh when the title reverts to the Crown." Which it hasn't, yet. Charles is already a duke twice over (Cornwall, Rothesay) and doesn't need another dukedom. Philip Trueman (talk) 08:09, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In Damian Lewis entry, Band of Brothers was being linked to an unrelated Korean show rather than the Tom Hanks/Steven Spielberg-produced HBO series (personally known to me as The Booty Brothers), I've fixed it -Gouleg🛋️ (Stalk • Hound) 14:10, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Running a Nicki Minaj fanpage equipped Nas X with the proper trolling skills to fend them off for a bit, but it wasn’t long before he apologized for all of it. clearly you did not watch the "apology" video! He was trolling :) Enwebb (talk) 16:21, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The list claims Nike won a lawsuit against MSCHF/Lil Nas X over the shoes, which isn't accurate. They were granted a temporary restraining order which isn't the same as winning the lawsuit. The lawsuit itself was settled between Nike and MSCHF. I went ahead and corrected that in Lil Nas X's entry. - Aoidh (talk) 19:08, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
