Wrong Martin Smith!
The Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnam:_A_Television_History links to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Smith_(documentarian) as the first listed writer. However that article on Martin Smith does not list "Vietnam:_A_Television_History" in the section on his career or in his "Filmography" or in any awards, although "Vietnam:_A_Television_History" is arguably the greatest documentary ever made and a "Martin Smith" is widely credited in the film itself. Does the Wikipedia article link to the correct Martin Smith? (I obviously don't know how to contribute to Wikipedia--Apologies)Nkennington (talk) 21:33, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

On 2-16-20, Martin Smith of wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Smith_(documentarian) wrote me the following message:

"Sir,

"I am not the same Martin Smith of Vietnam, A Television History.  I thought I had already responded to you…. Sorry if I did not.

"I don’t have contact information for the Martin you want. He is a British producer and he worked for Elizabeth Deane at WGBH… I don’t have her address either but should be in their directory.  She may now how to reach him.

"Martin

" | Martin Smith | Producer | Correspondent | "

I believe this is conclusive proof that The Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnam:_A_Television_History links to the WRONG Martin Smith. Will someone please fix this?Nkennington (talk) 18:55, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
