The source clearly says that Sean alliterates with Seamas. The article's use of "assonance" is wrong.--Jack Upland (talk) 00:24, 6 July 2022 (UTC) See the source: [1].--Jack Upland (talk) 08:25, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is quite important to add a Filmography graph and section above or below his Death and Legacy section, whichever is standard. Also acceptable would be a hyperlink to a separate page containing his filmography, as some of the larger actor's pages do when they have a substantial amount of work to cover. It is common to look on Wikipedia to see what movie's a certain actor has starred in, and Sean Connery's page is missing this honestly basic and standard inclusion.

Edits have removed the middle name Sean from parts of the article on the grounds it is not on his birth certificate, but it is mentioned under "Early life". It appears he did acquire the middle name Sean even if it wasn't on the birth certificate. Jack Upland (talk) 00:48, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. This has been restored. His birth name was given as just 'Thomas Connery' but it is clearly sourced that his full name included (originally, or later) 'Sean'. Gaelicbow (talk) 16:34, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
