He's listed primarily as a producer, but his IMDB page - [1] - doesn't list him as a producer of anything. Isn't Wikipedia supposed to be about what people have done, as opposed to how they see themselves? (If not, could someone make a page about me and how i'm a world renowned philantropist and nice guy?) svennirusl 21:23, 11 April 2007 (GMT)
The body of this article appears to have been ripped wholesale from http://donnie-wahlberg.biography.ms/. Unfortunately, I can't verify this as the site will not load on my machine, but Google's summary is a word-for-word match of the opening paragraph.
- By the way, that's because they copied it from a DB dump of Wikipedia. (similar to Answers.com, etc.) 69.208.64.181 23:44, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Regardless of copyright issues, major POV bias is apparent throughout the article and in this and other areas, it really needs attention. Unfortunately I don't think I'm the man for the job. Would anyone care to do the honours?

Yes, the article looks like a fan review. I have tried to change the most obvious once, but it was changed back again.--Padda 21:23, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
I agree on the POV bias, from New Kids on the Block being a "popular" group on down, but as I think they and him are all clowns, I don't think I'm the right one to edit this page either. Let's not correct POV one way by swinging it all the way to the other side. Highlander3751 21:40, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
Though I loathe the Backstreet Boys I think the POV has swung too far the other way. Is there really a neccessity to talk about his 'horrid flatulence' and 'stagnant career'? David Cheater 22:27, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture
- Is there a better photo of Donnie we could use? The current one looks like a mugshot... Morhange 01:31, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, that was my first thought, and after watching him on the excellent tv series "Boomtown", he certainly deserves a more flattering photo! Hillsboro 21:38, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed, that photo is horrible. -Mike Payne 08:50, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
The picture that's up there now isn't exactly stellar. It's pushing on two decades old, plus it's not very professional or of great quality. Anyone have something better? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.184.254.109 (talk) 08:23, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Entourage
Johnny Drama is not primarily based on Donnie...on the DVD for Entourage Season 2 in the special feature called the Mark Wahlberg Sessions, they identify the person who Johnny is largely based on. I am not making the edit because I dont have the DVD's handy.

Why is he credited as a Detective on pretty much every role on his filmography? =S —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.159.127.10 (talk) 16:56, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
