change "In a segment on President Obama's trip to China Stewart remarks..." in Studies on comic theory to "In a segment on President Obama's trip to China, Stewart remarks...". There must be a comma after 'China'. Jordanbkatz ( talk) 19:29, 14 July 2023 (UTC) reply

 Done Thank you for pointing this out.— Anita5192 ( talk) 20:21, 14 July 2023 (UTC) reply

Excuse this potentially stupid question, but should really be such a large focus on ancient greek comedy in the lead section? Seems like something that should be in a section of its own. I don't really want to change it myself, so here. SynthGuard ( talk) 13:04, 15 February 2024 (UTC) reply

I don't see a large focus on ancient greek comedy in the lead. There are a few sentences describing how comedy originated in Greece. To me this seems concise and necessary. There is already a section of its own elaborating upon Greek contributions to comedy.— Anita5192 ( talk) 13:39, 15 February 2024 (UTC) reply
