:Nothing wrong with that. Personally, I would like to know more about their background, influences, and other things along those lines, but I understand this is just a starting point. 
:Also, no where in the article does it explain what "The dudes" are. It may seem obvious or trivial, but you do refer to them as that after the initial paragraph, so a section on that might be useful. Finally, a bit more explanation on Chez and his relationship to the group would be welcome. Athenor 17:36, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In the intro section you list I'm on a Boat and Jizz in my Pants as being songs that propelled them to make the album Incredibad; however, the album had already been developed and produced with Jizz in my Pants and I'm on a Boat planned as singles. The source for this info was an interview with Samberg, I would have to track down the magazine. Anyway, point being, that's misinformation in your intro. It would be more appropriate to list Lazy Sunday, Natalie Raps, and Dick in a Box or something along those lines.Brakoholic (talk) 20:29, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  notable independent productions italics? 

message: What is the purpose of that quote? It seems to have no correlation to anything anywhere in the article and is totally out of place within the SNL section. I will remove it if some sort of explanation of its relevance isn't given before long.Brakoholic (talk) 20:54, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

message: In what way is their music parody? It's comic, sure, but parody? I don't see in what way it is. 86.0.203.4 (talk) 21:00, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

message: "He directed the movie based on the SNL sketch 'MacGruber,' which was released in May 2010. Following the film's release, he did not return to SNL."  Could someone please explain that last part?  It confuses me greatly. ~ Resister (talk) 21:13, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I did not know this either, but it's cited from an interview.  Seems legit.  CrocodilesAreForWimps (talk) 22:26, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

message: The picture in the article right now is very blurry and cuts out half of Jorma's face.  If anyone has a better picture please replace.

thread_title:  Picture 

message: The director of The Watch is a member of The Lonely Island and all three had a cameo in it.  I'm not good with the table format on Wikipedia, so can somebody please add that?
The director of MacGruber is also a member of The Lonely Island.  Please add that as well.
I find it strange that Neighbors made the filmography list but these two did not. PokeHomsar (talk) 13:37, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

message: I am trying to figure out how the name "The Lonely Island" actually originated. The sentence  references two articles, but those are not good sources. The article in Wired by Xeni Jardin only says that they shared an apartment. The GQ article is a dead link, although it's available on the Internet Archive. And maybe this is all there is to it: 
But the reason I bring up this question is that I recently read a passage in T.H. White's The Once and Future King that uses this strange expression, and am wondering if it has anything to do with naming the apartment.

message: Is Wikipedia a repository for every single detail about a subject? This page seems extremely long and detailed, especially considering the relative obscurity of the topic. Can anyone point me to Wikipedia policies that define an encyclopedic entry and what should and should not be included? Thanks! --Greysonsarch (talk) 16:44, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
