John Fox (comedian)
Thanks for your recent edits at John Fox (comedian). I'd like to work with you on verifying the information you provided. Wikipedia requires information be published in a reliable source, so anyone can look up the information and confirm it independently. This rule is in place so that misinformation does not get added to articles.

I have reason to believe you are who you say you are, and I believe the information you provided is correct. However, we need more concrete evidence than just your word. Unfortunately, there are some people in the world who take advantage of projects like Wikipedia to make up false information, and we do not want to spread misinformation, especially about someone who recently died.

Do you know if any published obituaries of your brother? Barring that, are you aware of any books or articles which published his birth name and date of birth? I am sure this is a difficult time for you, but any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Like you, I want an accurate, well-sourced biography here to honor your brother's memory. I urge you to get an obituary published somewhere, so we can add it to this article. Many comedians consider John an important figure in their lives, and the best thing you could do to help us honor his life here is to get an obituary published in the local major newspaper. Thank you. Jokestress (talk) 06:11, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
