Link cleanup[edit]

Removed 2 dead links, don't mind me.. Liquidborn (talk) 14:12, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Police Academy 8[edit]

Is in the works...though the punchline or gag off one a show states it being non-existant. Majinsnake (talk) 13:21, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled[edit]

The home page for ths school he attend is at Lisa Maile. I'm not sure what the precise title of the school is (and if it's so famous how come I can't get a higher google hit rate than I am?)

Mention of the appearance at the Alamo[edit]

He was at the ALamo Drafthouse movie theater this year. Should this be mentioned? —Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])

How is that relavent? Parcanman (talk) 03:20, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Vinslöv?[edit]

I heard that his family came from the Swedish village sv:Vinslöv, thus the name Winslow. Can this be confirmed? Battra 17:41, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He certainly looks Swedish. Noam Chomsky —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.104.47 (talk • contribs) 18:38, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, given that Swedish immigrants came to USA a long time ago, it is not impossible that for example Michael Winslow would have some swedish ancestor. But after noting that Winslow is a common name in England and USA I think that the person who wrote that he had ancestors from Sweden must have had incorrect information. --Battra 18:56, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a pretty stupid joke. — Mütze 18:40, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Denys Volkov[edit]

From the article: 'Ukrainian comedian Denys Volkov is also heavily influenced by Winslow's work and is said to have coveted him bereft of a template in developing his comedy-opera "Soviet Factory #2."'

Huh? ObtuseAngle 00:35, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kellen Winslow, Jr.?[edit]

Future hall-of-famer? Really? I'd suggest deletion of that mention until he actually strings together a few standout seasons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maxheritage (talk • contribs) 19:56, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I took that down. I also removed the references to being related to either of the Kellen Winslows, that seems completely unsourced. If anyone has a reference for it, please add it. Snowfire51 (talk) 20:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear grammar?[edit]

I don't understand what the first bullet point under "References in other media" is trying to say. Am I just missing the point, or is there some grammar issue going on there? Ogwondermike (talk) 01:01, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

no its correct grammar, it took me awhile to undertsand it too. it is saying that if u didnt have ESPN's constant update, your knowledge about sports would be as old as Michael Winslow's Tq6993 (talk) 02:33, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
