A fact from Willie Eckstein appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 3 December 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Mr. Fingers was not allowed to go to war because he was under five feet tall?
It says that he played at the Strand theater, but the link goes to the disambiguation page. Can someone figure out which "Strand" he actually played at and put a link to the correct page?? Thanks! 24.168.61.203 (talk) 02:25, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The Strand Theater that Eckstein played at was in downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada but was incorrectly linked in this article to a different Strand Theatre (London). There is no article on this particular Strand Theater to link this article. maineartists(talk to me) 08:45, 13 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As many will notice the change in this article, I have updated the layout and corrected several historical, grammatical and link errors. Since there are very little web reference sources to link citations with this article, it should remain a stub or orphan until another editor can contribute updated sources and link names and places to other Wiki articles. There are no discrepancies or disputes with facts within the resources stated so it is safe to say that the article is correct in its historical representation; however, it would be nice to include more than just 4 continuous sources. I am hoping someone will continue the work. I did not include a Discography or List of Compositions since both lists are extensive and can be found on the Reference Link: Willie Eckstein (Bill Edwards). maineartists(talk to me) 09:01, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
