Any info on Ramirez's birthday and death??
–Should the grammar in this article be spruced up a bit, especially regarding the references to the Kurgan? Especially where it says "...the vicious The Kurgan..." 71.200.112.237 04:01, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
The real world swordsmith Masumune was born in 13th century AD. He cannot be the father of Shakiko and the dragon head katana (593 BC)... pm 03:37, 17.AUG 2006
I have removed a number of statements from the article, as they are uncited and quite likely either non-canonical or OR sources. Before any of the following can be returned to the article, it needs to be cited with reliable, verifiable sources, and Imdb or fanfic is not considered canon.
From the Highlander screenplay and novelization comes a great deal of officially-sanctioned information on Ramirez's past, including his earlier Egyptian life, the circumstances of him gaining his Immortality, and details on his travels, including his numerous encounters with the Kurgan throughout the ages.
As long as it originates in an "official" source, background information like this can be cited and used within the main body text of Wikipedia articles, as in, say, Star Wars or Doctor Who or Battlestar Galactica pieces...additionally, this data has largely been accepted by the greater Highlander fan community for decades now, coming as it does primarily from the original filmmakers themselves.
The information might not have made it into the finished movie, but throughout Wikipedia, genre characters like (for instance) Luke Skywalker and Michael Garibaldi and have non-filmic biographical information fully integrated into the main text of their articles — the precedent definitely exists for Tak Ne/Ramirez, as well.

I think it should be noted that Villalobos is spelled like as single word, with no "-". It also should be noted that Ramirez has three surnames, a very odd thing indeed (even considering he was something of a nobleman).
—While odd, it is not entirely unheard of, as some families pass on both paternal and maternal surnames, such as current (2015) Panamanian ambassador to the United States, Emanuel Gonzalez Revilla Lince. Gonzalez Revilla (often hyphenated to show it is a single name "unit") was passed down from his father. The current text about the name (being incorrect) is uncited and should be dropped. 169.253.194.1 ( talk) 13:49, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
These citations are worthless. The crap comic book isn't a source, it isn't canon. The citation for Ramirez's original name Tak Ne incorrectly states the original script as a source as well. His original name is not given in any draft of the script for Highlander, or any of the sequels. 74.14.83.26 ( talk) 21:36, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
Charles V is not only a king was a imperator,'emperator' of the first global empire in the world. When the sun never sets. His son, Felipe II, sent to England 'la armada invencible', that was a dissater but two years later was king of England. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.83.137.184 ( talk) 23:20, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
