He was six feet tall "but he has [sic] to shave himself"... ? What does one thing have to do with the other? This article definitely needs some cleaning up, but I don't even know where to begin with that sentence. HEYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!

[edit] Jaleel White deceased?

I just rec'd an email saying that Jaleel shot himself; is this true? If it is why do you not have any information on it?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Cute 1 4 u (talkcontribs)

No, it is not true (thankfully). I don't know what people get out of spreading vicious rumors such as these! Jaleel is very much alive; in fact, he did a recent episode of 24. TamYum 15:29, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Thank you to whomever added the citation of source to the snopes page.--Geniustwin 00:09, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

I added the "suicide" rumor to the article, because when I heard that White had killed himself, I checked Wikipedia to see if it was true. I assumed that many others would do the same. The fact that the rumor is widespread, and that there are news sites that report on the rumor itself, makes the rumor newsworthy, I believe. (Remember, Paul is Dead has its own article on Wikipedia!) I'm going to reinstate the "rumor" addition but try to make it more news-like in style. ShawnVW 19:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't know where the Long Island, NY high school part of the rumor came from, considering I wrote the letter that appears on snopes and elsewhere. I wrote it on my myspace blog, then posted it on various message boards. Six months later it was everywhere. I did base parts of the fake obit on a rumor I read on an IMDB message board. Why did I write it? To see if it would get on snopes. S davis 03:58, 6 April 2007 (UTC)



who watches 24 any way so how would we know?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Cute 1 4 u (talkcontribs)

[edit] 24 Appearance

IMDB.com has no record of Jaleel in a 24 episode. And I don't remember seeing him anywhere in the 5th season. Can someone substantiate this?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Cute 1 4 u (talkcontribs)

[edit] Automall commercial?

Over here in NJ there's a very Urkel-esque character appearing in commericials for an automall. I don't think it's him, but can anyone in NJ verify? 69.125.89.103 02:50, 21 September 2006 (UTC) (aka marikun)

[edit] Jaleel White Deceased ? (April 20, 2007)

Why does it say Jaleel White died on April 20, 2007? I have been googling for the past twenty minutes and I have found nothing on this. Cite your sources please. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.50.173.46 (talk) 04:56, 22 April 2007 (UTC).

Typical vandalism. When you see it, revert it. Novalis 23:38, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ADD or ADHD

Do you think that he has ADHD??? I just want to know??? Thanks

[edit] Pop Star?

I remember Jaleel White having an R+b album and a short lived attempt to become a pop artist. Someone less lazy than I am should add that to the article. 72.78.163.154 20:44, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

  • I can't find any evidence of it online. If you have some and can overcome your laziness, please add it with a source. 71.238.189.104 (talk) 04:50, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Probs vandalism

I'm pretty sure Jaleel White did not die in 3010, so I removed that part.Shinealight 14:10, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "The Adventures of Charizard the Dragon" 1991 series

Was this an actual show? I'm pretty sure someone put that there as a joke. I can't find any other reference to it anywhere else. I'm going to delete it (even though I got a chuckle out of it).Snackmagic 20:29, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
