Suggestions for inclusion[edit]

Why isn't Tommy Lee on this list? His mother was Greek. His biography is pretty interesting and has many interesting notes about his Greek background.

What about Milt Pappas, famous Chicago Cubs pitcher who was robberd by the empire of a recorded perfect pitched game by one call? Or even other sports celebrities?

How about Charlie Crist, governor of Florida?

yeap. and George_Stephanopoulos. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DefendEurope (talk • contribs) 14:36, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Full and partial descent[edit]

The opening line says

"This page lists American citizens of full Greek ethnic or national descent. For those of partial descent see Category:Americans of Greek descent.""

Surely the definition of full national descent is that both parents were Greek? If so, there's a lot of names that don't qualify and should be moved to the Americans of Greek descent page.

Where are Amy and David Sedaris? I'm not very tech savvy so as to add them myself :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lukess714 (talk • contribs) 23:26, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actors[edit]

Many of the qualifying articles are of actors, so Greek-American actors should be created as a subcategory. Nietzsche 2 (talk) 19:25, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
