This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Mike Jones (3 January 2020). "Mandalorian: Punching Baby Yoda Added To Jason Sudeikis' Wikipedia Page". Screen Rant. Retrieved 3 January 2020. Ultimately, both Sudeikis' trooper as well as his partner paid dearly for their blatant disrespect, but that didn't stop Star Wars fans everywhere from being shocked by what had transpired. In fact, so monumental was the moment that it has already been immortalized on Sudeikis' Wikipedia page.

Initial text[edit]

What an awesome last name! I could say it over and over.. He's so cute, too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.110.233.26 (talk) 09:32, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Needs a pic!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by AbanjoExperience (talk • contribs) 20:14, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removing this:

He loves to play Halo 2 on his Commodore 64 at work and at home. He also sometimes battles Tina Fey's husband, Jeff Richmond, at this game.

No source, and extremely unlikely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.220.150.201 (talk) 07:02, 10 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Football[edit]

On an episode of Late Night Sudeikis' dislike of football (specifically his confusion towards the method of scoring) was revealed.--Porsche997SBS 01:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Vlcsnap-00166.jpg[edit]

Image:Vlcsnap-00166.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Etymology[edit]

Sudeikis sounds Greek, does is not? Does anyone know for sure about the etymolgy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.12.134 (talk) 04:55, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sudeikis is definitely a Lithuanian surname. Whether it's also a Greek one is doubtful. ~ Katoa (talk) 19:07, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relationships[edit]

April 21, 2012: Added info on relationship with Olivia Wilde — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poplicola1 (talk • contribs) 22:27, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Celebrity Impressions[edit]

That section is cool, but I don't see one shred of a citation! Bddmagic (talk) 00:16, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mother's maiden name[edit]

Currently the article states his mother was born Kathryn Bigglesworth, and is the sister of George Wendt. This can't be true if the usual naming conventions were followed. I suspect "Bigglesworth" is just vandalism, replacing Wendt, though arguably she could have been born Bigglesworth if she were a half-sister of Wendt. - Nunh-huh 06:51, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Updating photo[edit]

Hi all -- I work for Jason's management and he has requested to change his photo. Can someone please advise on how to do so? Running into issues with being an 'unconfirmed' account. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grantlease (talk • contribs) 17:49, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Grantlease: First you have to make sure the image is either your own work or freely licensed (meaning the author has given up some or all rights to it – see this for details). Then upload it from this page. But note that just because the subject of the article wants the picture replaced doesn't necessarily mean editors will accept a new picture immediately—if it was of poor quality they might prefer the old one. (But if he wants the current picture replaced because it was obtained and/or published in some unethical manner, he has the right to take it down—which I assume isn't the case because the description of the picture says it was taken at a movie premiere.) Also note that there are policies regarding conflicts of interest, as I mentioned on your own talk page. Nardog (talk) 18:42, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
