My Wikipedia contrail on my main browser at home is a little skewed: I've recently been updating production history pages for RCP, so I've been looking up lots of Broadway musicals in order to confirm credits, spelling, and punctuation.

• 1996 in film
• Annie Get Your Gun: no comma
• BeláBéla Bartók: (arrgh) note the accents
• El Dorado
• Encomienda
• Hello, Dolly!
• Joseph Canteloube: full name Marie-Joseph Canteloube de Malaret
• Lope de Aguirre: I saw Aguirre, the Wrath of God recently and was curious about the historical figure
• Omagua
• Oscar Hammerstein II: his grandfather Oscar Hammerstein I was an opera impresario
• Pareidolia: somebody mentioned it and I wondered, what is that?
• Philip Barry: One L
• Russel Crouse: One L
• South Pacific
• The Philadelphia Story
• To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday: no comma
• Whose Life Is It Anyway?: no comma

Type "en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" into your browser address box and see what comes up as autocomplete suggestions.

Kaiser Fung at Junk Charts takes apart an egregiously junky figure from the Wall Street Journal and puts it back together to tell two different stories.
