Talk:Thomas Jefferson Byrd

Bianca C Byrd (1977 film)?
Filmography lists a Bianca C Byrd (1977) but there is not listing for this film on IMDb, nor can anything about this film be found on a Google search. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Groundrush (talk • contribs) 02:50, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Year of birth and age
IMDB is saying that he born in 1941. Indiewire is saying that he was 78 while Variety is saying that he was 70.

Which is correct?

Can his IMDB page be added then? MikaelaArsenault (talk) 08:25, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

Day of death

Category Murder
There is a conversation about whether or not categorizing this and many other articles as murder is appropriate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2021_Atlanta_spa_shootings#Category:murder I welcome anyone's input.Yousef Raz (talk) 21:20, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
