Deleting Dead Links And Trivia[edit]

Since 3.5 years or so have passed since the above, I went ahead and implemented some severe edits.

The King Features link was dead
The "Duck Will Have His Day" link was dead
That a comic is cancelled and/or reinstated in a newspaper is not noteworthy
That someone got a DUI is not noteworthy unless there's a lot more to the story. In this case, there isn't.

I'm not a fan of Bruce Tinsley but let's be fair. rewinn (talk) 04:54, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Potential POV issues with DUI[edit]

I'm not writing this to whitewash this article or anything like that, but the section entitled "DUI arrests" does seem to have POV issues. It is the only section in this article that has sources (which is good, but everything else is unsourced). For a figure who appears to be controversial (especially due to his political views) we ought to be careful with things like this. We should keep the info, but I'm a little concerned with how it is presented. --1990'sguy (talk) 21:56, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Because the article is so short, this content appears too weighty. I wouldn't mind a reduction in describing the crime and incorporating what's left into "Career" for now. Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 22:03, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, that's what I will do. If you think any of my edits here could be done better, please don't hesitate to point that out! :) --1990'sguy (talk) 15:14, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Works for me. Thank you! Stevie is the man! ^{Talk • Work} 15:34, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
