Cat:Sex symbols
Do we have a WP:CITEation for this? If we have a link per Reliable source that names himas a sex symbol, we've satisfied WP:V. - brenneman (t) (c)  22:04, 9 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Are you f'ing serious? and if you want more,  is a Google search for "Billy Dee Williams" SEX SYMBOL. Good grief, has the world gone mad? I can't believe this is something to debate about. Next, there will probably be a debate on whether or not Pam Arderson's Anderson's breasts are implants. JEEZ! 64.241.230.3 19:43, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Picture
Ok, I know he's missing a picture, but I'll hopefully be able to fix that problem, as he'll be at the Motor City Comic Con this weekend, and I'll be going, and hopefully, he won't mind me getting a picture for Wikipedia VicAndPhill (talk) 01:06, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Rocky?
I've removed the reference about Rocky. It was Carl Weathers who played Apollo Creed, not Billy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.211.83.9 (talk) 13:19, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

 * I think it's notable in the Television section, yes. Not for much more than a sentence, though.Kp.murphy (talk) 17:35, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Domestic Abuse Charges
Shouldn't there be something on the page about his domestic abuse charges? I first heard about it in Chris Rock's 1996 HBO stand-up comedy special, Bring The Pain (at 25:20 in out of 58:18) and then found this link

http://www.nydailynews.com/archives/news/1996/02/01/1996-02-01_cops_nab_billy_dee_williams_.html

I'm not sure what came of that though/couldn't find any more information to confirm if that went through, so, comments/if anyone has something to add?

 * It is definitely notable, no idea why it is not mentioned. I am adding it to the article. Freikorp (talk) 12:38, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
