I personally can't imagine that Mr. Sadowitz (if this is indeed he) has any possible grounds to claim copyright infringement for the quoting of a few individual lines from public performances? --Stormie 01:05, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems pretty clear that the few quotes on the page are being used to illustrate and critique Jerry's style and performance. While a listing of jokes with no other purpose would be a copyright violation, the use of a few selected quotes for the purpose of illustration and critique qualifies as fair use under US copyright laws. -Lanoitarus (talk) .:. 01:35, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Anonymous editors have changed the date of birth back and forth between 4 June 1961 and 4 November 1961. I can't find a good source either way with a quick Google. Can anyone provide a reliable answer as to which is correct? --Stormie 11:23, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This page goes for November, and isn't a wikipedia mirror. How reliable it is, I have no idea. --Aim Here 11:54, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nice one. --Stormie 13:05, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I just exchanged emails with Jerry and he told me his birthdate is 04/06/61 and that he'd tried to change it but it had been reverted. Is an email from the subject of the page enough evidence for a correction? There is at least one source quoting the "correct" date available through a google search.

replies: text: So why is it now back to November?  Especially as the citation link now goes to a betting site.  I despair of Wikipedia sometimes... 81.109.186.140 (talk) 09:12, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

thread_title: File:Jerry Sadowitz drawing Edinburgh Festival Fringe.jpg Nominated for Deletion

message: The 'subject' section of the infobox is to delineate the areas where Sadowitz is unique or unusual. Most comics riff about "Everyday life, Self-deprecation, Current events, History,pop culture,religion, old age, politics, Celebrities, Racism and Human sexuality". To add these to the infobox adds nothing to the article, isn't referenced in the article content and is overlinked. Wikipedia uses  specific guidelines to help us create the most useful, well written and effective articles we can. Span (talk) 15:05, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The infobox needs a clean-up. Janey Godley is the only one in the "Influenced" section that is supported by a source as far as I can see, and in the influences the given source for Steve Martin doesn't really support it, but just has Sadowitz commenting on a particular quote by Martin. It's also cluttered and incorrectly capitalised. January (talk) 17:39, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

message: I'm putting this comment here, rather than on the page for this programme, as I suspect that discussions on its own talk page would only be read by passing tumbleweeds. The page itself is decidedly lacking in content: was it a sitcom? What specifically was so controversial about it? Hopefully someone who reads this can add some detail. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 20:37, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

message: I see a spread of sources, saying Sadowitz's date of birth is either 4 June or 4 November 1961. How should we best cover this conflict? John (talk) 11:06, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I have just Googled ""Jerry Sadowitz, 61"", ""Jerry Sadowitz, 60"", ""Jerry Sadowitz" "4 June" 1961" and ""Jerry Sadowitz" "4 November" 1961" with quote marks. Between them, I can find exactly one reliable source, and that says Jerry's 61. Not conclusive, by any standards, but I say without better sourcing we should leave as is.--Launchballer 11:19, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

replies: text: He certainly did, and we already have a source for it in the article, so I don't know why it's not mentioned here. He certainty didn't deny it or sue the Guardian. I've put it in. Richard75 (talk) 01:28, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
