[edit] Requested move

  • The Jerk (film) to The Jerk. There is a disambig page for The Jerk, and not only is this page used for only two articles, but one of them, the dance, doesn't even have an article. - A Link to the Past (talk) 17:23, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Oppose. Not having an article is not a reason to drop the DAB article. Vegaswikian 05:04, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Support - Actually, it is. Unless it can be shown that there are other articles out there worth writing with the title "The Jerk", this page should be at the place of least surprise. -- nae'blis 17:46, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Support per primary topic rule. --Dhartung | Talk 11:48, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, definitely the more well-known "The Jerk." Recury 16:30, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Support per WP:D#Primary topic. BTW, there is a dab page at Jerk (disambiguation). --Usgnus 22:10, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The dog

The dog's original name was Lifesaver, not Hero. "Hey mister, don't call that dog lifesaver, call him shithead!" —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.105.190.101 (talk) 10:30, 26 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Song on the radio

I remain unsure whether the song Navin heard on the radio was actually perfomed by Lawrence Welk (though it certainly matches his style). The song is called "Crazy Rhythm" just in case anyone ever wants to do some research and perform a proper update. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.192.195.141 (talk) 14:09, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
