Talk:Arnold Schwarzenegger

His Illness

keep hearing rumours that he's taking time of lately as he's ill but won't confirm it or what is wrong with him... can anyone elaborate on this? and should this be mentioned?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.240.96.120 (talk) 12:09, 23 October 2009 (UTC) 

Yeah, I heard something about that too! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 1tomh1 (talk • contribs) 12:33, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Sycophantical

This is one of the most ass-kissing articles I have found on Wikipedia, which says a lot. DFS (talk) 10:49, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Why not edit it to make it less so? -GTBacchus^(talk) 14:10, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Arnold's true height?

Listing Arnold as being 6'-1.5" in this article floored me. I met the fellow two years ago. I doubt he is over 6', and probably more like 5'-10". Actually, he seemed even shorter than that. The occasion was his entering the Ralph Lauren Polo Store in San Francisco. I had expected him to be rather tall. Who knew? Can we find his California Driver's License or other confirming stats? Clearly, 6'-1" is undocumented. It is in the beginning of the film Pumping Iron. Lists him as being 6'2", 245 lbs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Renglish (talk • contribs) 15:57, 8 September 2009 (UTC) http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/governor-arnold-schwarzenegger.jpg The current picture is garbage. There must be a way to change it to be more respectable

Arnold's Political Affiliation

The page currently lists Arnold Schwarzenegger's affiliation as Democrat rather than Republican. This is likely vandalism and needs to be fixed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.84.134.142 (talk) 09:31, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Austrian American

{{editsemiprotected}}

Please change "[[Austrian American]]" to "[[Austria]]n [[United States|American]]" as the nationality description in the lede.

The article makes explicit that Schwartzenegger is a dual national and nationality is normally mentioned in the lede so the displayed phrase "Austrian American" is correct. However the wikilinked "Austrian American" goes to an article that defines the term as being "Americans of Austrian descent", which is an ethnicity description, not a nationality description. This change is solely for the benefit of providing the correct wikilinks, visible text does not change. --97.112.131.23 (talk) 04:31, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

 Done Good observation! --Srinivas 06:33, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

The article originally linked to, before the change, still pictures Schwartzenegger. 72.38.32.223 (talk) 21:06, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Fuck You Letter

Several issues:

1) That section completely fails to mention in the slightest what Arnold's letter was about.

2) The sentence "Though the governor was a prominent member of the Republican party he had been invited by the organizers." requires a comma after "party." Also the fact that he was invited by the organizers seems to be included as if it were a trivial fact (although I recognize that this point is debatable).

3) Also Ammiano comment out of context strongly suggests that Arnold is against gay rights/marriage despite this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HV5B2t9uh5k .

4) Shouldn't this be moved to the Political_career_of_Arnold_Schwarzenegger article? This incident is hardly more important than many of the events in there.

Tributes?

I think it is worth mentioning the several tribute rock bands that there are to arnold. If there were only one then i could see it as negligible, but there are more than a few (such as ArnoCorps and Austrian Death Machine.)
