Added info[edit]

I was planning a Paul Dini article of my own, but you beat me to it. I've added some info of my own, which I hope helps. Also, one important thing... Paul does not want his birth year known for personal reasons. Feel free to e-mail him to prove this point. (paulmdini@aol.com) user:Orville Eastland

Lack of sources[edit]

There's a lot of unreferenced information in this article. I recommend that it be reviewed to ensure that the claims in it are all verifiable, per WP:V. For example, what sources are being used to verify the awards? Those are major claims, which should be connected to solid references. I'm not saying that the information is false -- but right now most of the links on the page seem to be autobiographical in nature. Better citations are needed. --Elonka 04:19, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I hadn't heard of him being associated with Lost. Is this true? Also, which episode of Transformers did he write? --BlueNight 06:56, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography / Credits section for Dini'd dense body of work?[edit]

Can we create a "Filmography" and "Television" section for Dini's immense body of work, giving him the credit h deserves on various different projects throughout the years? It would be great, thanks! Npamusic (talk) 03:35, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding GA1[edit]

It has come to my attention that the good reads citation is likely a copy-paste of an old version of this Wikipedia page. While I would have preferred @FlairTale to be more responsive in addressing this review, it was my mistake to fail it based on the copyvio criteria. If FlairTale wants to renominate this page I am more than happy to take this back up. For any other GA reviewers, please disregard the copy-vio concerns I mentioned.
