Sexual orientation
He was gay, right?Pokey5945 (talk) 20:31, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
- Apparently. "Wallace" doesn't seem like a very common name for a woman. I find it unlikely, though not impossible, that Albertson married a man in 1952. The article mentions nothing about his sexual orientation, nor his marriage or child discussed in the info box. I've removed it for the time being. I'll see if I can find anything about this, and look for cites. Joefromrandb (talk) 15:47, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
- See Wallis Bird and Wallis Simpson. See also this biography that mentions his wife. Liz Read! Talk! 22:46, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
- Wallis, yes. If it's going to be in the article, it needs to be cited. It should also be discussed in the article proper, for clarity. Joefromrandb (talk) 22:58, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
- Is that a WP:RS? It looks very sloppy. (For instance, the sentence: "He as together with his wife before he passed away from colon cancer.".) Joefromrandb (talk) 23:11, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
- He definitely had a wife named Wallace. See this. I didn't even think that it could sound like a man's name. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 23:14, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
- See Wallis Bird and Wallis Simpson. See also this biography that mentions his wife. Liz Read! Talk! 22:46, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
Jack and shooting pool
No mention anywhere of Jack Albertson's pool-playing ability which is surprising in my opinion- he was outstanding.Crashbox (talk) 12:35, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
- If you have a reliable source for it, add it to the article. BMK (talk) 15:12, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
Notable works in infobox
I don't understand the removal of the "Notable works" section from the infobox. It appears WP:DUE. --Ronz (talk) 17:13, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
