Lots of sources online say that Roosevelt awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom, but that page here on Wikipedia says the medal wasn't created until Roosevelt's successor Truman in 1945. So something's not correct either in that article or this one. Discussion on Talk:Presidential Medal of Freedom. - Brian Kendig 15:01, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)
The In Memorium article in Baha'i World 1940-1944 states: "...she was publicly commended by Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, Jr...." There is no reference to a medal in this source. Occamy 18:24, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] High school education dispute
Which high school did Carole Lombard graduate from? On the front page of the Hollywood High School website, she is declared one of their alumna. [1] [2]. Yet NNDB and several other sources claim she graduated from Fairfax High School, also in Hollywood. [3] [4] IMDb makes no reference to either. Which sources are correct?

- Please leave me a note on my talk page if this dispute is resolved. As of today, I have precisely one-thousand, two-hundred thirty-four (1,234) pages on my watchlist. Hall Monitor 22:06, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Family home
I've removed the section about the family home in Fort Wayne being a museum. It's actually a B&B and as such it's not appropriate for us to advertise it. It is not a museum according to this website [5] which mentions that museums are nearby. They don't seem to be Carole Lombard museums, although as a famous daughter of Fort Wayne, she may be commemorated there. Rossrs 04:21, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
