message: I think they should include his charity work he and his wife, Pam Dawber, are involved in. He does a charity event every year called the Mark Harmon Celebrity Weekend, in Oklahoma. It is for the Ronald Mcdonald House and for some other childrens charities, including the Boys and Girls Clubs of America. They mention nothing of any of his charity works. As much time as he and his wife give to kids, I believe this should be mentioned.RedneckBella (talk) 21:43, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

message: "Harmon was born in Burbank, California. His father was University of Michigan football All-American and Heisman Trophy winner Tom Harmon, and his mother is actress Elyse Knox, the daughter of World War II Secretary of the Navy, Frank Knox"

:On the page for Frank Knox, it explicitly states that he is not the father of Elyse Knox and therefore not Mark Harmon's grandfather, but that comment is uncited.  Since there is no citation for that fact on this page, either, I've marked both with "citation needed." Thorswitch (talk) 23:26, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've followed up by doing the research.  Elyse Knox is NOT the daughter of Frank Knox.  This unfounded rumor appears to be of fairly recent origin, as there are no records of any connection between the two in newspaper or internet archives before about 1990, that I can find.  Frank Knox's obituaries list survivors, none of whom is a daughter.  And even the sources claiming the relationship often note that Elyse Knox was born with the family name "Kornbrath."  According to the U.S. Census and various publications from the 1940s, including Boxoffice Magazine, Elyse Knox was born Elsie Lillian Kornbrath to Frederick and Elizabeth Kornbrath of Hartford, Connecticut.  I've changed all the pertinent articles and cited each change.  This should resolve it, except for the hundreds of other websites that still make the claim.

message: As the movie Stealing Home is not even mentioned in the Career section I would disagree that this is the role that he is most notable.  Any other opinions? --Captain-tucker (talk) 19:14, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've deleted the comment.  It's extremely debatable, which of itself makes it POV.  No consensus necessary, imho. Monkeyzpop (talk) 00:04, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

message: As per Wikipedia is not a collection of lists, I have reduced the Filmography section of  to just the films that have Wikipedia articles, and renamed it to Selected filmography ... people can click the IMDb External link that follows the section to see the subject's full filmography with links to information about each of their films.
Please see the template's talk page for examples of using the , , , and  templates.
I have also used 19xx tags for the years of the films, since 19xx has little encyclopedic value.
Anonymous edits without comments may be reverted by anyone.
I am placing this boilerplate message on this Discussion page before I actually make the changes, so that I can just put "see Discussion page" in the edit summary, and hopefully not have my edit summarily reverted as vandalism by Some Other Editor.
Happy Editing! —  19:43, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

I feel that we should link the terms Special agent and Emmy Award in the lead section.
Any objections to these two links in the intro?
