A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on October 20, 2018.

Fracture of the hip.

Just wanted to let you know that the statement made about a fractured hip turning into a full break is actually the exact same thing. Both the words fracture and break mean that a bone has been "busted". In medical terminology we use the term fracture, although shortened to ' # '. We use the term interchangeably due to some persons knowledge. And because some people believe that a break sounds more serious than a fracture. But both are broken.

Tom Petty on bass guitar

Petty extensively played bass guitar on recordings and in concert. He was the bassist in Mudcrutch in both their early and later years, he recorded bass on many Heartbreakers records, his solo albums and in one instance, a Johnny Cash album. Therefore, I believe bass guitar should be listed on his list of notable instruments. ChristianJosephAllbee (talk) 03:30, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
