The first paragraph
editNeeds to be rewritten. I left it as it is because it's hilarious. A quick reading of that paragraph leads the reader to conclude that She's All That is the sequel to I Know What You Did Last Summer -- 12.104.244.6 (talk)
Television Credits?
editWhere is his list of credits for television? I know he's done several TV shows, as well as TV movies, like the one that I saw in my LMS class, "Too Soon For Jeff", which he was in opposite Jessica Alba. Someone add this list?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.33.94.233 (talk) 19:08, 15 May 2008 (UTC) He is so hot ! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.164.30.176 (talk) 19:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Weird Edit Summary
editWhat on earth is this edit summary talking about [1] The "No Heroics" role needs to be integrated into the article and then sourced (not an EL) since it is integrated into the article and sourced and what is the mention to the source not being an EL since that has nothing to do with the references already there Garda40 (talk) 20:21, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry, when I noticed the change to the article there was a link to an article about the No Heroics role in the "External Links" section. I didn't notice that it was also mentioned elsewhere. My only point was that the link shouldn't be an external link but that the information should be integrated into the article but since it was already in the article the link just needed to be deleted (or added as another source). And then I didn't even delete it! Fixed now. SQGibbon (talk) 21:27, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
Early Life
editIn his fathers bio written by his wife his wife specifys he was Hungarian. He has no german ancestory whatsoever. Get rid of this fake quote. Wherever garbage you pullked it from.
It says on this page that FP Jr's paternal grandfather was German but on his father's page it says he was Hungarian.
It says FP Jr learned Spanish and about Puerto Rican culture from his paternal grandfather but it was his paternal grandmother who was Puerto Rican, so is this correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashlar (talk • contribs) 05:33, 1 May 2012 (UTC) I
Germanic Language vs. ScrapIronIV
edit@ScrapIronIV, Binksternet, and Sebastian James: I can understand someone not knowing about umlauts and German spelling. But to revert without checking at least. That's outrages me!! How the hell can anyone cite grammatical rules! I've tried to find a document for his ancestor to satisfy ScrapIronIV but Binksternet thinks that Ancestry.com is not good enough. The link of Ancestry.com has the original marriage image document which his great-grandfather spelled as Prützel. Moreover, that's why "Pruetzel"'s are is mainly found only in America or English speaking countries. It's obviously matter of his grandfather trying to spell it in anglicized "ue" instead of "ü" (Pruetzel/Prützel), when he immigrated from Germany in 1934. The documents proves that was living in Berlin and born in Hamburg. But don not misunderstand me, I'm not implying that he has German origin because many Hungarian minorities in Germany owed to German-ise their surname by 16-18th century. I can't go so further back to find the original Hungarian name. BUT THE NAME IS DEFINITELY Prützel IN GERMAN!! Make a search an find out that all Germans write their surname this way! Or you want to stick with line like "His family original surname was Pruetzel but his father change it to "Prinze" . What's your thoughts??

- Thoughts - keep that out altogether. It's trivia at best, with sexist overtones (we're not listing the birth names of all his great-grandmothers). Prinze was born Prinze, that's the name that matters. --Nat Gertler (talk) 16:20, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
- Wikipedia exists to summarize for the reader all the important things about a topic that have been published. Can you show me any biographies of Prinze that give his grandfather's name? Otherwise this kind of thing smacks of original research, which is not allowed. Binksternet (talk) 02:04, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
- Definitely OR in calling it "original family name"; that one generation was Prützel doesn't mean that the previous generation didn't also change names, much as we saw the changes to Pruetzel and then to Prinz. --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:26, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
WWE work
editThe second paragraph under "Work with WWE..." needs attention. It says "On August 17, Prinze.." but which August 17? no year is available? I would look to the reference on that sentence to fix this but the reference has nothing to due with anything it is a reference for. The reference is about him leaving Smackdown but it is on a statement that he was attacked by Orton while hosting RAW in the leadup to a Orton - Cena match at Summerslam (which?). There is no mention in the reference of August 17. Raw, guest hosting, Orton, Cena or SummmerSlam. The ref seems entirely off subject. Pure Evil (talk) 20:05, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
