This article has WAY too much info on Poker. It's a bio, not an article on poker.

No, it doesn't. Poker is a major hobby of his, and his Celebrity Poker Showdown appearances have been one of the largest sources of fans for him, after the "I Love The..." series. The problem isn't that we have too much info on a certain topic, it's that we have far too little on most other subjects of relevance to him: the solution isn't to remove noteworthy information, but to add more info on his personal life, career, and other appearances and interests so that the page becomes more balanced.

Yes it does.

I agree that the article needs more info on his life and non-poker career, rather than less content on poker. One thing I'd like to see is an explanation of why/how he chose the name "Michael Ian Black" as his stage name. | Mr. Darcy talk 17:44, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For instance, the fact that he hosted the public-humiliation show Spy TV is mentioned but not explored. He chose to be a professional bully at that time in his career, and the fact should be presented along with his "poker-charity work".

Picture caption

That picture was not from the Episode of Stella Camping, it was from a origional stella short from when stella was touring.

David Sedaris

He has a fake feud with David Sedaris that is chronicalled (sic) on his website. It is noteworthy and should be included on his page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.125.11.58 (talk) 21:53, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

HOW CAN THIS ARTICLE TALK ABOUT POKER FOR SEVERAL PARAGRAPHS, YET NOT HAVE SENTENCE ON HIS ROLE ON "ED". HE WAS ON THE SHOW FOR 4 YEARS, IN BASICALLY EVERY EPISODE! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.56.71.132 (talk) 03:13, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is he actually related to Billy Corgan?

I couldn't find a source on this, is it verifiable. Also, why is it not linked to Billy Corgan's wikipedia site? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.199.92.246 (talk) 01:59, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
