Last Waltz screen cap

I think the screen shot from The Last Waltz should be removed. Free images are now availible and included in the article. Seconds? Objections? - tSR - Nth Man (talk) 01:15, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rickdankolastwaltzstill.jpg has now been flagged as a file for deletion. Deletion of the image will improve the quality of the article, as far as Wikipedia guidelines are concerned. - tSR - Nth Man (talk) 00:12, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

info about danko's later years

Academy of Music

In the "Instruments" section, does "Academy of Music" refer to the Live at the Academy of Music 1971 DVD? Jwicklatz (talk) 00:19, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ambiguity regarding birth date

Recently, someone had changed the information under the photo (in the background information column) from 2nd December 1943 to 2nd December 1942 (that update still stands) and this caught my eye while I was browsing recent changes to look for vandalism. I did a quick google search and the page that I first opened stated the date to be 1942. So I naturally thought that to be correct and made a change to the lead completely skipping over the explanation given in the source code. Luckily, this error was pointed out by Rms125a@hotmail.com. I searched the information up again and there seem to be articles for both 1943 and for 1942. Is there a reliable source that mentions Rick Danko's birth date to be in 1943? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jiten Dhandha (talk • contribs) 15:41, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's complicated, per this blog. We should probably explain the uncertainty about the birth date in the article body. My recent edit relies on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to have properly vetted the birthdate. – wbm1058 (talk) 21:10, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
