Footer[edit]

Why does his article have a footer for Codename: Kids Next Door? Sure he was the director but those boxes are usually reserved for characters when its a work of fiction, no? MKV 01:51, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mo’s Birthplace[edit]

User: 76.250.205.101 deleted the statement that Mo was born in New Orleans. This was a good catch: although New Orleans has been commonly reported as his birthplace, I just found a post on Mo’s blog as follows: “Little known Mo-trivia: while New Orleans is my hometown, I was actually born in the Chicago suburb of Des Plaines.” http://mowillemsdoodles.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html Do we agree that this statement is sufficiently definitive that we should add Des Plaines as his correct birthplace? --Arxiloxos (talk) 01:57, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Citations[edit]

I have researched and added numerous references and in-line citations to this article. Are these additions sufficient for the warning boxes about sources and citations to be removed from the top of the page? Kdelf (talk) 00:22, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. I have removed the tag.--Plad2 (talk) 08:05, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life[edit]

The tone of this section is a little too informal. No biggie, but it could do with some tightening up.... user:PurpleChez — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.118.65.34 (talk) 16:42, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
