I don't believe that Casey ever made a movie specifically for Google as it says in the article. Can someone verify? I think they are referring to this video that he (Casey) shot on Google Glass. Gingakei ( talk) 20:33, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
Any information of how much he had to pay for fines and law suites? For example spray painting advertisement posters or printing fake $2 american dollar currency notes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.115.116.33 ( talk) 21:01, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

I propose that Neistat Brothers be merged into Casey Neistat. I do not think this would be too difficult as the most of the information on the Neistat Brothers article is already covered in the Casey Neistat article. Also, very few pages link to the Neistat Brothers article. Sro23 ( talk) 21:47, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

According to this article, "Within six days the video was viewed a million times". The WaPo article that is linked to a few sentences later (original link dead, syndicated copy here at the the Spartanberg Herald-Journal) says "a month later, nearly a million Internet surfers (and counting) had come to know the Neistat Brothers". Where did a million in six days come from? The article only (vaguely) indicates that www.ipods-dirtysecret.com had less than a million visitors in a month.
It was a widespread viral video that I remember seeing myself, but there's absolutely no point in specifying a specific viewcount to a Quicktime video either shared through emails or embedded as a copied file on other video hosting sites.

I think mentioning his grandmother the dancer Louise Cecile Grossman that has inspired him might be crucial in the early life section. I'm also surprised by the lack of mentioning of his parents Barry Neistat and Amy Neistat Alexis Ivanov ( talk) 02:17, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
Well, that's why this page focuses on Casey mostly. sheldon.andre ( talk) 01:14, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
Should the Boosted section from this article be removed? Going over it, it just seems like something only a WP:FAN would know, and it would be as if adding information about "Neistat's drones" or "Neistat's iPhone's and iPad's" or "The collection of tech in Neistat's studio apartment".

His filmography fails to mention his video logs which, despite its casual nature, has become an important part of his curriculum vitae. Is there a way to talk about them without having to treat each as a new "great work", since they aren't really that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HacksawPC ( talk • contribs) 07:34, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
I normally don't have much to do with writing articles about living persons but I feel that there are a few changes that need to be made here in terms of the style of the article. First off, I think the youtube infobox needs to be changed with a person infobox. Lots of this article isn't even about his youtube channel, and besides, he has done other work like his app company. His active years should also be looked at, in his filmography section it states his part in a film in 2008, plus, the article covers his career all the way back to 2001. So I would think his years active should be "2001–present" or possibly "2008–present". – Hatio93 ( talk) 10:17, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for changing the infobox. Regarding the years active it might just best to remove so no confusion occurs, what do you think? Emir of Wikipedia ( talk) 13:17, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
Date range in years during which the subject was active in their principal occupation(s) and/or other activity for which they are notable. Use the format 1950–2000, or 1970–present if still active (note the use of an en dash, not hyphen).-- Emir of Wikipedia ( talk) 11:44, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
I removed the following "Beme the company in partnership with CNN are now working on a YouTube news channel featuring Casey Neistat as host called Beme News. The Channel is still in trial stages to further refine the quality of the content." The was no source for this, and the next paragraph goes into detail that Neistat and CNN are no longer working with each other. Paige Matheson ( talk) 22:19, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
I think a section should be added on his collaboration with other YouTubers. He is a big YouTuber, so more information on him empowering other creators on the platform is important. This information can be found throughout his vlog channel. -- Siddkumaran ( talk) 04:30, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
I took a punt at cleaning up the article today - will come back for more shortly assumping that people are happy with my edits. There's a lot of rubbish that is covering up some genuinely interesting narrative. Joe ( talk) 20:43, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
Should Neistat's involvement in YouTube Rewind 2019 be included in a new title called "web" in the "Filmography" section of this article? I feel that full coverage of one's involvement in film should be a priority in this situation. It's only fair, since no one has disputed adding Justin Roiland's involvement in PewDiePie's Meme Review into the Justin Roiland article.
