Can an ADMIN please bring back the deleted version? Copy and paste the info here, and we'll move it in to the main article.

It's here. It looks like that article was about a different Steve Higgins. Gary King (talk) 18:07, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'll admit that I'm crazy lazy, but Mr. Higgins has been the co-host of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon for three years, plus the beginning of the article makes him sound like he's dead. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.67.152.166 (talk) 09:12, 13 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Vandalism

edit

Someone added a bunch of obviously joke material to this article, including an appearance on the SyFy Network show The Expanse. The citation for that appearance does not support the text, and I couldn't find evidence for it elsewhere. It had recently been added back in as "incorrectly removed" before I removed it again. (See WP:BLP). GeoGreg (talk) 19:07, 28 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

The "During the 1970s" paragraph is highly suspect - it's plainly ridiculous, and the citation supporting it refers to page 256 in a book that has only 247 pages. Gruverja (talk) 02:33, 17 September 2018 (UTC)Reply


This Must Be Vandalism

edit

As (talk) stated into the section above this one, I just went to the reference given for this paragraph:

"During the 1970s, Higgins became popular in the Iowa lounge scene for eating scraps of carpet onstage. For a brief period of time, he rose to sufficient notoriety that people brought scraps of their own home carpets to his performances, in hope that he would consume theirs onstage. Interest waned fairly quickly and Higgins moved on to more traditional standup routines.[2]" https://archive.org/details/comedyatedgehows0000zogl/page/164

There is absolutely no mention of Higgins in this reference. can anyone else clarify if this is vandalism and/or remove it? I just wanna make sure before removing it myself. DNocterum (talk) 10:11, 23 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
