message: The brief portion about his political stance in the 2008 presidential elections is unsourced. And, as it stands alone, I don't see how it is relevant to the rest of the article. Unless Mr. Hurt has contributed in a demonstrably significant manner (in which case the political part should be expanded), his political stance seems irrelevant and should be removed from the page.

message: In his interview with Terri Gross on NPR's Fresh Air, Hurt said that as a child he spoke words in "Guamanian" before he spoke English, but his pronunciation of the language's name is unclear. Probably he meant Chamorro. Bruce Swanson 00:36, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

message: Why.  Huh?  Why.
There are no other photos available except this old one from the Toronto Film Festival?
Why this insidious secret conspiracy to ingrain Toronto into the mind of the world to think that “Canada” is synonymous with “Toronto”.
What are we, some banana republic?
One giant megalopolis surrounded by a million square miles of jungle?  Like Peru or Bolivia or Ecuador?
I know that it is part of this secret conspiracy by that Canadian woman who is on the Wikipedia Board of Directors, and pretends to promote ‘canada’, but she is really just promoting Southern Ontario and Southern Quebec.
It’s bad enough that the Blackberry, supposedly ‘canadian’ is really made just outside Toronto.  And that all our car factories are within 4 hours of Toronto.  And that all 5 of our biggest banks are in Toronto.  And that half our universities are within a few hours drive of Toronto.  And that our stock market is in Toronto.  And that most of our aerospace industry is in Toronto.  And that almost every ‘thinking’ job in Canada is in or near Toronto ... even though the country is 9 million square kilometres.
So now Toronto is secretly stealing away the title of “Hollywood North” from Vancouver, thanks to this Wiki BoD woman from ‘canada’ who is really promoting Southern Ontario?

message: For some unknown reason, a random editor has been mutilating William Hurt's page, by wiping it clean and putting up non Hurt stuff.
We should lock and protect Hurt's page.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:204:CF80:7440:163:92D:4606:413E (talk) 05:05, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

message: The filmography section needs to be split off since it is getting too big in relation to the rest of the article. The career section also needs to be expanded since his most important films only receive brief mentions in the first paragraph of that section. Hzh (talk) 13:58, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
