'Mad Anthony' and Batman

[edit]

There are several publications listing Anthony Wayne as a direct ancestor of Bruce Wayne. In some cases as an uncle or less direct, yet still an ancestor. It's also an FAQ on social media. Perhaps someone can create a Depictions or modern culture category? Loftwtr (talk) 16:43, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's under the "List of memorials to Anthony Wayne" article. I found it by mistake, would it make sense to add a small Cultural depictions (or popular) subtab or standalone article? Lincontrain (talk) 15:59, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

3rd Infantry

[edit]

In the Death and Legacy section, there's an entire paragraph devoted to the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard), and Wayne is only casually mentioned once. Does this info really belong in this article? Canute (talk) 14:53, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this, it seems like an outlier when compared to other bios on wiki. Some of the content on the entire article also seems redundant. Lincontrain (talk) 15:52, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Removed irrelevant details and moved one line to legion topic. It looks like this editor whomever that is, is referring to the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) article. Lincontrain (talk) 17:22, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To add to article

[edit]

To add to this article: mention of Wayne's Congressional Gold Medal. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 02:00, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I added this to the summary section after Stony Point, the battle he earned the metal for. Lincontrain (talk) 18:10, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Featured in Boardwalk Empire as wax statue in fictional town of Tabor Heights, New Jersey. Gyp Rosetti (3rd season main antagonist) admired General Wayne and later broke into Wayne display case to steal the general's hat to wear, further demonstrating Rosetti's obsession with power and bizarre demeanor. 2607:FB91:966:5467:EC38:93FF:FE93:4EE1 (talk) 23:30, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
