Why does this redirect to one of his shows?
Just finished a copy edit, and thought I'd explain a few things I cut:
I couldn't see why this one was in here: it could go back in if someone can account for its relevance.
Having a cat, having friends over to stay, and thinking Spongebob is funny didn't seem remarkable enough to me for encyclopedia inclusion.
I'd suggest a rewrite of the lead section, too, to focus more on the impact of his work rather than covering every stage of his life. Otherwise, looking good! Well done to all the article contributors. Gonzonoir (talk) 15:37, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Dan Povenmire created the minions 2A02:C7C:E03B:7600:CEFA:5313:87B5:6007 (talk) 19:49, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
The sentence "Povenmire often reacts to and interacts with young artists and creators, giving them advice and encouragement,while also providing behind-the-scenes information and debunking fan theories about his various projects, including Phineas and Ferb, Milo Murphy's Law and more." which has 2 citation needed tags could theoretically be sourced to his Youtube channel in which Povenmire also posts some of his TikToks to as YouTube shorts. However I think this might qualify as OR as these videos simply showcase these things but don't actually explicitly say he's doing that. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:25, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
There's a meme on TikTok that Povenmire created the Minions (movie) or had otherwise worked on it. This isn't true. If you see any allusions to working on the Minions franchise, they are vandalism.
Povenmire informally addresses this on his social media, if you want to see proof, check my citations.[1][2][3][4] R. J. Dockery (talk) 22:32, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

I noticed that currently, the image in use is to say the least, not very good.
I saw that this picture exists, and I know it's older than the current one, but I think it's better, because you can actually see his face properly in this one.
Looking through the article history, I see that some people tried putting the better image in there and got reverted. Why is that? QuickQuokka [talk • contribs] 17:03, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
Why is Dan Povenmire's YouTube channel included in his infobox? His career is almost entirely made of his voice acting and production career - not sure what relevance there is in dedicating an entire section to his personal YouTube channel, regardless of any high subscriber count he may have on the platform. It seems unnecessary to me, and I'd consider removing it or putting it somewhere else on the page. Aagarrido (talk) 06:55, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
