A news item involving Elmore Leonard was featured on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the In the news section on 24 August 2013.

The info box on the right hand side seems to imply that Leonard was 84 when he was born. Can someone fix that? —Preceding

'The Tonto Woman'
This has been made into an excellent short film, and is available on DVD under the title '2007 Academy Award Nominated Short Films'. I do not see it on the list of stories that have made it to film.
The
DetroitObit source is inconsistent with what was/is in the article from other sources in some ways:
What is his first wife's name? This source said Beverly Decker, while others have Beverly Claire or Beverly Cline.
What is his second wife's name? Joan Leanne Lancaster or Joan Shepard?
The source says he divorced his third wife last December, but others do not.
The article says he had 3 daughters and 2 sons. This source names 2 men, 2 women, and the ambiguous "Chris Leonard". Is Chris an unmarried daughter (or one who didn't take her husband's name, etc.) or is the count wrong?
The article said 15 great grandchildren but the source said only 5. With 5 children born in the 1950s-60s (at least two of whom we know are married daughters) and 13 grandchildren born in the 1970s-80s, it seems more likely that 15 great grandchildren is correct, no?
It would be good to have info about his military service (I think), too. —[AlanM1(

The info box says he was married to Christine Kent until his death. The text says he divorced her in 2012. So which is correct?
