This is not a matter of copyright or anything. I just want to say that the photograph (the one of Charley Pride on an El Cheapo Records "as seen on TV" record) is horrible. Can we possibly get a regular photograph of Charley Pride without a record cover? Or, if not, what about the possibility of putting there a picture of a Charley Pride album that isn't so ridiculous-looking. The one that's there is hideous. It looks tacky as can be. It does Charley Pride no justice. I'd do it myself, but I don't know how. Slater79 20:14, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
If he had 36 number 1 hits, wouldn't it make sense to put all 36 hits on the "selected" singles discography, and not just 29? Just wondering. I mean, there's a whole bunch of singles on the "selected discography" that were not even in the top ten. What gives? By selective, is it meant that these are favorites of the person who wrote the discography? Slater79 12:08, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Why is he categorized as a person from Montana? There's nothing in the article about Montana. Did they mean Idaho because of the Boise Yankees? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thmazing ( talk • contribs) 17:46, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
Can we get a source for this, please? I have good reason to suspect that the date as given in the article is off by a few years. — Scott5114 ↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 20:24, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
The source in the article says 1934, which matches better with the 1952 pro ball date than the 1938 birthdate. Users keep changing it to the more popular 1938 date. I will change it, and add notes. Shajure ( talk) 17:14, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
Unless someone thinks this bears mention in the body, or otherwise objects, I expect to remove the bit about the Rangers from the lead.

In May of 2021 a lawsuit was filed against Pride's estate by an alleged, illegitimate son, one Tyler Pride. This information was edited into the article by a newbie who didn't do proper citation. It was removed by an 'interesting' editor who treated the edit like radioactive waste, casting aspersions on its veracity. A bit of quick research would have revealed to said editor that not only did the newbie not cite his/her edit, he/she commited another serious offense–it was copied and pasted from the Yahoo News article that this editor used to reference the information. Good editing to all! Tapered ( talk) 05:12, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
The part about the lawsuit can go into an article about the son or the estate, should either ever earn an article. I expect to remove it, leaving the sources attached to a shorter, factual line that he and the named (or unnamed if that has been suppressed) person had a son in 1979 and that pride was ordered to pay child support after the paternity was proven.

The appropriate links to the Wikipedia articles Tom Sawyer and specifically ``River Song were included. So they will be added back as they were. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.218.36.228 ( talk) 01:15, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
