1. Single link to an actor's Wikipedia page.

2. No content in FPP whatsoever.

3. No context in FPP that might let me know what I'm about to click on.

Newsfilter is bad enough, but Obituaryfilter is so much worse. Especially the ghoulish race to be the first to post the latest near-celebrity death.

Vito90 yes I was a fan. I followed his career and lamented his self-destructiveness.
