09:2609:26, 16 February 2019 diff hist −9‎ Margalo Gillmore ‎ →‎Career: At the time her book was published the company was called Houghton Mifflin. It was not Houghton Mifflin Harcourt until after she was dead. Anyone looking for the book would look it up as being published by Houghton Mifflin.
09:2309:23, 16 February 2019 diff hist +6‎ Margalo Gillmore ‎ →‎Career: If she had already made two films, she could not have made her film debut in 1932; sound film must be what is meant.
09:2209:22, 16 February 2019 diff hist −16‎ Margalo Gillmore ‎ →‎Career: I have seen the movie, and she does not have a major role. She has two or three lines of dialogue.
09:1909:19, 16 February 2019 diff hist 0‎ Palesteena ‎ →‎Lyrics: the lyric given was just a phonetic transcription of the sound and made no sense, I think it must be what I wrote, which is pronounced the same, and is a traditional Hebrew song.

09:0209:02, 11 February 2019 diff hist −1‎ Bells Are Ringing (musical) ‎ →‎Plot: corrected grammar and punctuation
09:0009:00, 11 February 2019 diff hist −9‎ Bells Are Ringing (musical) ‎ →‎Plot: removed misleading adverb
08:5008:50, 11 February 2019 diff hist −8‎ William Powell ‎ →‎Cancer battle: I deleted "battle" because there is a growing feeling, with which I agree, that calling an illness (and one illness only) a battle casts a medical matter in a military light and conveys inappropriate ideas, such as that the patient did not fight hard enough.

16:4016:40, 7 February 2019 diff hist +10‎ Monroe Wheeler ‎ →‎Life: corrected obvious errors in word choice
08:5408:54, 7 February 2019 diff hist −4‎ The Hunters (1958 film) ‎ corrected factual error. James Salter is the author of the novel--it says so in his Wikipedia entry and in the entry for the film on imdb.

21:2221:22, 5 February 2019 diff hist 0‎ Felix Nussbaum ‎ →‎Early life and education: corrected spelling--name is spelled with a K on his own Wikipedia page.
19:3019:30, 5 February 2019 diff hist −125‎ Lionel Newman ‎ →‎Work with other composers: This paragraph is not written objectively. I removed the worst of it, the first sentence, with its gush (he "absolutely loved the film industry") and the claim about his greatness. Any list of great film composers would have him below many, many others. As the filmography shows, he very rarely worked on a big-budget, well-reviewed film.
