For another reason was looking at

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Recipients_of_the_Legion_of_Merit

 on Wikipedia and Michael's name wasn't there. Then checked to see if I put it on his profile. Yes. Then looked at our Legion of Merit Category. Other names were in green. Michael's in black.  What's the difference? Now I'm wondering if there's something wrong with the rest of those award categories. I set up John McGrath's and his is in green. McGrath's isn't on Wikipedia either, but McCain's is. Is it because the Wikipedia list reflects only people with an article existing on Wikipedia?

The reason his name is in black is because his profile in in your cache, as far as Wikipedia his name needs to be added. Just because he is in WikiTree it is not added to Wikipedia.

Don't know what you mean by in my cache. Still didn't tell me how to correct.
Ok. Got it. You mean that because I have it called up (cache), it's black. Not that there is a problem with it. Thank you. Figured it out when I cleared everything related to Michael.

"Just because he is in WikiTree it is not added to Wikipedia."

As Kevin said, that is why it is black on Wikipedia.
