Please review new edits and remove Notice of Conflict box. I have made factual, easily verifiable edits. Also, Charles B. Pierce set design credits such as 'Phantom Tollbooth' are incorrect and should be removed. There is question to a third wife, and her legal name. Florene "Flo" Pierce was in "The Legend of Boggy Creek", "Bootlegger's", and "The Winds of Autumn. Charles B. Pierce suffered Alzheimer's Disease and died on March 5, 2010 in a nursing home, in Erin, TN, isolated from family and friends. He willed his estate to his first wife, Florene Lyons Pierce, and their three children. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MrWillyCreek ( talk • contribs) 20:30, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
The lead of this article is too long and includes too many specific details which are not necessary here and are covered later in the article. The body of the article is around the 15,000 character mark, which means according to WP:LEADLENGTH the lead should be 1-2 paragraphs, not the current 4. For example, the second paragraph opens with details of his birthplace and childhood move of towns,and early jobs, details which should not be in the lead but are correctly covered later under "early life." I suggest the 2nd, 3rd and 4th paragraphs could all be cut down to one paragraph which gives an overview of his career. As per WP:LEADELEMENTS the lead should "establish significance" and "be written in a way that makes readers want to know more" rather than give so many details which are then just repeated in the body.
