Are you sure you want this article to say this?

With Jerry's death this morning, do you really think that the suggestion that he's "best known" for being someone's father is correct? He was a comedian long before Ben, and his acting roles show that he's best known for his own work. I am not personally going to change it, but I'm sure someone watches this page and will adjust. After all, being "someone's father" does not make someone notable according to your rules. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.72.163.253 (talk) 10:36, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Agreed. It appears to have been fixed. -- Zanimum (talk) 19:06, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Photos

The choice of photos looks terrible. The one in the infobox is painfully obviously cropped from the Stiller and Meara photo about eight inches below it in the text—you can even see part of her signature. If another appropriate pic of him isn't available (hard to believe), it would be better simply to put the S&M photo in the infobox and caption it something like "Stiller with his long-time comedy partner and wife, Ann Meara".--Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 15:29, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

This also appears to have been fixed. -- Zanimum (talk) 19:07, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Crashbox

He never voiced any announcer on Crashbox. As far as I can figure, they think he voices the "Poop or Scoop" announcer, who is actually actor Danny Wells. Their voices sound somewhat similar, but not similar enough to be confused for each other. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:31:CDB0:11FA:A8BD:7852:392E (talk) 19:09, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Years active

Can his years active ending date be changed to 2016?

His last roles in movies and television were in that year. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 20:32, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
