Adams's middle name "Raymond" was added in this edit. I can't find a better source for this and wonder if it's worth keeping. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 03:40, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
I see now it was added much earlier, here. Still no good source for it though, nor his birthdate, unless you count WP:BRITANNICA.[1]70.163.208.142 (talk) 23:28, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

I undid this edit, but it's been reverted. I have a few problems with this statement. It repeats what the third lead paragraph says and focuses on Dilbert over Adams. It implies that the comic stopped being a "cultural touchstone" after cancellation, which isn't for us to say; sources in the article simply report the drop from syndication and why. I considered removing "until" and starting a new sentence to just read "It was dropped from syndication and now runs as a webcomic", but that's even more repetitive and disjointed. Maybe we should drop "and becoming a cultural touchstone" altogether. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 20:45, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
You make a good point. Roger (talk) 02:07, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
Cartoon seems to have peaked and ebbed long before. Hyperbolick (talk) 08:10, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
Yes, that is another reason to remove the edit. Roger (talk) 19:46, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
I'm looking at the ledes for other bios and have cooled a little about redundancy. For example, the lede for James O'Keefe mentions his firing in the first and last paragraphs, granted it's a longer lede. Still have a problem with the conjunction "until", it's drawing conclusions. 70.163.208.142 (talk) 20:43, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
Probably both of them have enemies who take great pleasure in repeatedly saying Adams and O'Keefe were fired. Roger (talk) 23:35, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
