[edit] German ancestry

Does anyone have a source that he's of significant German ancestry? I've removed the category until someone provides one. JackO'Lantern 05:15, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Schroder is German. Just like the German Chancellor Schroeder.

Irrelevent. Definition of German-American requires one grandparent or two great-grandparents to be born in Germany. Without proof, we can't confirm this - Germans were emigrating to America more than 3 generations before Ricky was born.--MartinUK (talk) 22:46, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Name

Seeing as he's going back to being credited as "Ricky" and not "Rick", should the page be moved to refect that? --4.247.128.20 23:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

I vote yes on that. --AMK1211 04:22, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

I just read the article, and came here for that reason. I'm gonna go ahead and move it, per the naming convention of using the most commonly used name. No one calls him 'Rick,' so we shouldn't be different. bobanny 06:07, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

You get only 49,000 matches for "Ricky Schroder"[1], but 218,000 for "Rick Schroder" [2], so.... Ritto Revolto 09:24, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Official Website

The Official Website listed doesn't look/feel to official to me, are we sure it is? --Mjrmtg 13:04, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
