Semi-protected edit request on 14 January 2024
The word "unclear" should be changed to "indeterminate" in the last sentence of the opening paragraph of the Personal Life section. The quote from Mr. Patrick McGilligan is "We don't know how many children Clint has had with how many women. We don't know exactly. One was when he was still in high school."
Indeterminate is a more precise, fitting word with no loss in understanding or context. Gladiatorial (talk) 02:37, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
Yojimbo, Sanjuro & the Man with No Name
The discussion of Eastwood's feature breakthrough should mention Leone's use of Kurosawa's YOJIMBO and Mifune's character, Sanjuro. 68.96.91.232 (talk) 00:37, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
- Why would we need this here? The lead in the For a Fistful of Dollars already states
The film has been identified as an unofficial remake of the Akira Kurosawa film, Yojimbo (1961), which resulted in a successful lawsuit by Toho, Yojimbo's production company.
The matter is covered further at A Fistful of Dollars#Legal dispute. Peaceray (talk) 08:31, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Infobox type
Given Eastwood's primary notability as a film director and actor, it seems a bit WP:UNDUE to be using the officeholder infobox for this article. Back in 2020, I rearranged the infobox to use officeholder as a module [1], but it seems to have gone back to the previous version now. Does anyone have any further thoughts?

- True, should be changed --FMSky (talk) 01:10, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
Category:Polyamorous people
A recent article in The Telegraph labels him so [2]. This term only entered the mainstream lexicon in the 2010s, but it obviously applies. Does anyone contest adding the cat? PromQueenCarrie (talk) 00:54, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Since no one objects, I'll go ahead and add it. PromQueenCarrie (talk) 01:36, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
