A fact from Barbara Billingsley appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 15 September 2004. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Barbara Billingsley was so typecast as June Cleaver on the sitcom Leave It to Beaver that she could not get acting jobs for nearly twenty years?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2004/September.

'Drinking wine' is insulting as a 'hobby'; changed to wine tasting.

link to Restaurant Official Site

According to "What should be linked", this appears to be within guidelines, not actually spam. Wikipedia's not advertising the restaurant, we're providing the link to the official site of the restaurant which includes historical data and photos not in the Wikipedia article. Any votes against reintegrating the link - for the next seven days (to September 2nd) - append this edit. If there isn't enough objection, and justifiable objections, this link adds interest to the article so ... let's have your thoughts.--Victorcoutin (talk) 20:10, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Links like that may be appropriate as footnotes, but not as links in the body of the article. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is this in the wrong section?

I found this in the "Starting out" section:

"She reprised her June Cleaver role three times, in Amazing Stories, Baby Boom and Roseanne."

This is placed before "Leave It to Beaver", but needs to be moved because it presumably happened after that show stopped production. (I did fix the link to the TV series called "Baby Boom".)
