is not Olivia Wilde. It's Evan Rachel Wood. but I can't edit. No account. I'm sure someone can though. 2603:6010:9305:7B00:95C:5388:35C8:9 (talk) 12:00, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The original short had Wilde as Madonna, the film had Wood as her. This is properly stated in the same paragraph about both actresses. Masem (t) 12:49, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why is his wife and marriage not listed in the top section, but is in the early life section? 172.56.113.56 (talk) 18:49, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The lead of any Wikipedia article is intended as a summary of the most important information about a topic (explaining why the topic is notable), and should be fairly short. Most of the time, the personal lives of people with Wikipedia articles are not what make them notable, and so they are not usually included in the lead if there is a lot of other information that needs to be conveyed, as there is in the case of this article. I assume you are referring to the Personal life section, I can't see anything about his marriage in the Early life section. If not, please let me know.Tollens (talk) 19:35, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
