For "The Supreme Court of the United States issued two injunctions: one granting production rights to Jane, Our Stranger,[84] and another that canceled that production after four performances.[85]", the first source (New York Times) has the initial injunction granted by Thomas D. Thacher, a federal court judge, no mention of the US Supreme Court. Thacher, note spelling, was a Federal District Court, New York, judge, not a US Supreme Court justice much less the Court as a whole. The second source, Billboard, say "Judge Thatcher" of the US Supreme Court, note not the whole court, issued the second injunction. There has never been a US Supreme Court Justice named "Thatcher". My guess is the second article managed to get the court wrong and misspelled the judge's name. Since this is a current item on the Wikipedia front page and I've not worked with this page before, I don't want to make the changes myself. -- Erp ( talk) 15:15, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
Not entirely sure what does/doesn't get changed in the article, so I'll leave it to more experienced editors. Either way, it seems that the theatre will be getting renamed for James Earl Jones. See more here. Magitroopa ( talk) 21:13, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
Isn't it too soon to change the article? The theater hasn't officially been renamed yet. Not until later this year: https://playbill.com/article/broadways-cort-theatre-to-be-re-named-for-james-earl-jones And the official website still calls it the Cort: https://shubert.nyc/theatres/cort/ Tinmanic ( talk) 15:01, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
