Canadian-American?

What justification is there for calling him Canadian-American other than that he lives in America? If he just lives in New York he could be considered a Canadian living in America, as opposed to an American originally from Canada. On the other hand, if he's a U.S. citizen or refers to himself as a Canadian-American, then it probably makes sense to call him such.

Okay. This keeps being an WP:Edit War, can we come to a consensus on this? CaffeinAddict (talk) 21:06, 16 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Great idea! Let’s do the same procedure wiki does with so many other Canadian dual citizens such as Alanis Morissette, Celine Dion, Michael Bublé, Justin Bieber, Drake, William Shatner, Ryan Gosling, Ryan Reynolds, Barry Pepper, and Paul Anka, Neil Young etc. the country that they were born grew up in would be in the lead. If this was a case like Anna Paquin who grew up in two countries which is why her lead says New Zealand-Canadian I understand but it isn’t that Will Arnett was born grew up in Canada so just Canadian belongs in the lead. If American is in the lead than all those other wiki articles would have to get their respective dual citizenship in the lead which is just ridiculous side note from what I know he got citizenship through his wife similar to Reynolds and his just has Canadian in the lead, his info box would remain unchanged.

G.O.B. on Sesame Street

Hey, Arnett was on Sesame Street at some point -- AS A MAGICIAN! here's the link -- Someone add it!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qclBGpRt0b4 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.146.25 (talk) 21:47, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ambiguous phrase

In the beginning of the career section is the sentence “His first was a pilot with Kevin Pollak and his wife, Lucy Webb, for CBS, that was not picked up.“ Is Webb Arnett's wife or Pollak's wife? meamemg (talk) 22:41, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It says he was educated in French-speaking schools

What on Earth does that mean? Does that mean that French was the language of instruction? If so, was he in them just because, or is he Franco-Ontarien? Lockesdonkey (talk) 00:51, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

French immersion?

Well Written

This is a very, very well-written article with a great photo of G.O.B.. Don't mess with it!--208.127.100.147 (talk) 07:12, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bad Photo

Man, that 2008 Tribeca Film Festival photo is incredibly unflattering. -Arteitle (talk) 01:09, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article was rated "B". The main problem with the article is the complete lack of sources and references. -Duribald 00:50, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

MineCon

Should it say somewhere that he co-hosted MineCon 2017? – Nixinova ⟨T|C⟩ 20:40, 18 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reference 53

Reference number 53 has nothing to do with the sentence to which it is attached. The link goes to an article about a woman being assaulted, though it was put there by someone as a source for his alcohol relapse. Jhurley85 (talk) 17:00, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies, the situation has been rectified by another editor. I believe the website I linked had some sort of auto looping on articles and had switched when I copied and pasted it. CaffeinAddict (talk) 18:11, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
