		Burbage, Condell, Kempe, and Tarlton were best known as actors, so their biographies appear in the Actors section.
		William Shakespeare is primarily known as a playwright, so his bio is in the Playwrights section; since he was also an actor, he gets a brief listing in the Actors section along with a pointer to his full bio under Playwrights.
		The length of his entry under Actors has nothing to do with the amount of evidence for his acting career, since as I said before this is greater that for most other actors of the day.
