Talk:Tony Bennett

message: Article correctly notes that Bennett had his first number one hit in 1951 with 'Because of You'. However further down in the same section it incorrectly states that his first top ten billboard hit was 'I Left My Heart in San Francisco' in 1962.  He's actually had several top ten hits by 1962. 24.237.26.221 (talk) 18:02, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

message: I would like to recommend the current image of Bennett used in the infobox be replaced with the one below; the current photo is not the clearest and a little amateur looking for an identifying photo. The one below shows Bennett much better. BakedintheHole (talk) 16:29, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Photo of Bennett 

message: You might want to mention that Mr. Bennett took part in the third Civil Rights March from Selma to Montgomery AL on March 22, 1965 with Martin Luther King. He was invited by Harry Belafonte.

message: Someone has added a horrific lead-in to this article which reads, "American Traitor Leftist SCUM. A Democrat Rapist."  I found this on 21 July 2023.   Please remove this horrid language! Dominy7 (talk) 23:35, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Locking 

message: Olivia Newton John's death last year didn't appear on the main page of Wikipedia in the "in the news" section. So why does Tony Bennett get to be "in the news" ? MisterZed (talk) 12:12, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: You will find the discussion at Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates/August 2022#(Posted) RD: Olivia Newton-John. Apparently the article was not in good enough shape at the time of her death, and it took too long to get it ready. GA-RT-22 (talk) 13:43, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
