-== Lesser-known? ==
-I admit that he was shot to prominence with ''The Hangover'' but he was hardly "lesser."  He's been huge across the nation for years and had his own t.v. show!  I think we should eliminate the lesser-known reference.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/98.148.252.143|98.148.252.143]] ([[User talk:98.148.252.143|talk]]) 07:55, 7 March 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-== The Killers ==
-I am fairly sure he portrayed, Santa in the killers video to the song: Don't shoot me Santa. Might be worth a mention, bit unusual!  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/94.173.123.110|94.173.123.110]] ([[User talk:94.173.123.110|talk]]) 22:48, 4 March 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-== Writer or not? ==
-Removed the reference in the summary to him being a writer, as no discussion or citation of any writing activities is given in the article.  If he is indeed a writer beyond writing his own stand-up material, it needs to be mentioned in the article and not just the summary.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/71.202.113.2|71.202.113.2]] ([[User talk:71.202.113.2|talk]]) 09:06, 19 June 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-== Chad Farthouse ==
-Removed "born <b>Chad Farthouse</b>" name info from the summary. FTA: "During an interview on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien, Galifianakis was asked if he had received any pressure from his agent to change his last name. He replied that Zach Galifianakis is, in fact, a stage name and that his real name is actually Chad Farthouse." To be quite honest, it's pretty obvious this is a joke.
