Anyone want to research and post stuff about him buying followers and getting banned from Twitch? https://www.polygon.com/2018/3/30/17181942/the-attack-kevin-pereira-twitch-view-bot — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.99.181.216 ( talk) 14:52, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
Maybe mention Kevin's future projects such as the show he is producing on SyFy. Chiphazard711 ( talk) 04:43, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
It says "[...] The Screen Savers, in 2004.[5] Pereira is a co-host of G4's live tech info show Attack of the Show! and is the only original cast member still remaining." but that doesn't make sense since it doesn't say that "The Screen Savers" *became* ATOS. 96.255.47.51 ( talk) 09:32, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
I can't believe they did not think this was cause chaos on mentioning it alive, and then actually reading some of the posts, I bet wikipedia never gets mentioned again on the show again -SUN
Who locked this? I wanna thank you, too many n00bs. *salute* You've endured well Kevin. :p :p :p
Someone lock this and revert it to before the vandalism spree.
I had already suggested that. Someone proceeded to delete it and the three or four discussions before that. Mtvcdm 00:28, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
I posted a request for an Admin to come over here and lock it. Mosenmori 00:36, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
You changed it because it was on the TV! Way to go, man. Big ups. -- Steve ( talk) 23:29, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
It was me who put the middle name in here.(IT PUTS THE LOTION IN THE BASKET AND DOES AS ITS TOLD) I saw it, and now I felt almost embarrassed. Good thing I wasn't called out by Pereira himself. Check the history. -- Seishirou Sakurazuka 23:38, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
Before "Belvedere" was mentioned on the show, a sheet with a bunch of personal info (including his birthdate) was shown on air. It showed his middle name as "Elder". Since we now know that it's not actually Belvedere, I've gone ahead and put his middle name as Elder. Was this prudent since we don't have real confirmation? iKato 16:23, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
If this person has a middle name, please cite a credible source for it. It has been in dispute for quite some time now. -- HappyCamper 04:19, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
Although I keep hearing it in the chat rooms and on the G4 forums, I keep hearing that his real middle name is "Immy", although I don't know where it came from. So I am not going to put Immy up there yet. Seishirou Sakurazuka 22:50, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
I Think middle names are just there so you pearents can agree on a name more easily. -- Waln1111 01:36, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Sometimes middle names are needed for a place of information like Wikipedia. -- Seishirou Sakurazuka 01:47, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
"broadcast live every weeknight from Los Angeles, California." That statement is wrong. It still airs at 4pm every weekday in my area and never at 7pm and I live on the west coast.
It airs live at 4pm on the west coast which is 7pm on the east coast and is still airing live because of the time zone difference. Cyonk27 ( talk) 20:55, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
--- AOTS airs 7pm eastern standard time - erin
Can you add that Kevin Pereira occasionally mentions highly offensive terms, such as Goatse, Arabian Goggles, and Teabagging on the air (I don't catch this stuff while I watch it, but it gets alot of flak on the G4 Forums. -- Mushroom King 06:32, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
Unofficially created the phrase " LIKE A CAT DRIVING A BUS." Cyonk27 ( talk) 20:55, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
can u add that Kevin P. hosted Arena and sported the worse mustache ever witnessed on television?
You could, but it wouldn't stay long...-- Dp462090 00:42, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
The link for Arena is wrong, its linked to the british television show, not the G4 gaming one, i will fix this problem.
That mustache was pretty ghastly...I say go for it. Gopherdabills 01:08, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
Is there anywhere on the Web that shows him with his mustache? He commented on it recently on Attack of The Show. He joked about how it didn't meet in the middle and was a " " mustache if my memory serves me correctly. I can't picture Kevin looking anything of the sort. He's just being too hard on himself.-- InnerRise 02:37, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Are Olivia and Kevin still dating? On the Tom Green Show, Olivia and Tom contemplated kissing, and Kevin said to go for it. He then said, "update the wiki, kids." Did he insinuate a break up? It says single on his Myspace. 70.153.198.12 03:53, 29 August 2006 (UTC) dude who knows
Please tell me when it was officially stated that Kevin and Olivia ever dated. I'm completely against that statement until I see proof. I would hate for it to have been or still be true.-- InnerRise 02:35, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
I was sure that his Birthday was in early January. Anyone care to clarify? If I remember it I'll be sure to come back here and post it because I did know the actual date. I can't think of it ahora mismo.-- InnerRise 04:10, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Well don't I feel stupid. I actually visited Kevin's blog and I even have a posted comment on there dated January 10, 2006. So I must have known and just forgot. Maybe just hopeful thinking. Ah well. Kind of a shock and let down. I thought his Birthday was in the same month as mine. It's still close to mine though. But now this means he's actually 5 years older than me instead of 4 years older than me as I previously thought since his Birthday is in December and not January. Not a big age difference still though. And it's still basically the same thing, might as well still consider it 4 years instead of 5. Well that's all for now. If I have anymore concerns, I'll be sure to come back here and post about them.
P.S. Kevin's page should contain more material. Kevin is very muliti-faceted, his personality is so varied. He's a very interesting person.-- InnerRise 18:40, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Pereira has hosted or been a guest on many other programs besides Attack of the Show!, including Pulse, Arena, G4tv.com, X-Play, Robot Wars, Battlebots, Reviews on the Run, and Cheat!.
As long as unsourced is being listed, the birthplace doesn't have a real citation. It's the same birthplace listed on IMDb, but citing IMDb for trivia is like citing another wiki - the info is only as reliable as the sources given. Gimmetrow 02:20, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
Hes been on Channel 1 news. It was sometime during last year. I remember watching it in class than all of a sudden jumping up because KP was a guest they were asking about some tech wise. I think it should be noted he's interviewed on the special features of the Doom movie.
Is Kevin Pereira in any way related to Michaela Pereira? SuperWiki5 22:00, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Kevin was never invovlved with that site ic checked its a gay porn site.that site is obviously vandalisium it needs to be removed.-jw
He really should legaly change his middle name to Renaldo
totaly( Esskater11 18:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC))
Based on a video on Kevin's website, it seems his middle name is Elder. Can anyone back that up?

There is a "romance" between Kevin and Susan according to AOTS and several sketches have aired about this including the "ping pong is strong" skit
Didn't Kevin once confirm himself on an episode of Attack of the Show that his first big break was on Nickelodeon's Are You Afraid of the Dark? In fact, didn't he exactly say "Wikipedia does it again" before confirming it? Why isn't it on this article? Now, I know what you're thinking: "Just add it yourself," but if he confirmed this to be more than just Wikipedia blaspheme, shouldn't it have never gotten deleted in the first place?-- Wikieditor1988 ( talk) 04:58, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
I was unaware that there was any problem with adding citation templates, but it was just pointed out to me on my talk page after my edit to use {{ cite web}} here. It does not appear to have much altered the presentation. Is there a desire to avoid those templates here? If so, what's the benefit of untemplated citations? Thanks. -- JHunterJ ( talk) 20:24, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Since you've undone the benefits, would you please modify the wikitext to restore the benefits? -- JHunterJ ( talk) 12:10, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
"When a reference tag coincides with punctuation, the tag is placed immediately after the punctuation. [Exception: ] where a reference applies to a specific term within a parenthetical phrase, rather than the entirety of that phrase, the tag may be placed within the closing parenthesis if appropriate." Since the exception doesn't apply, the ref is placed immediately after the punctuation, just as discussed at Talk:Jennifer Lopez. -- JHunterJ ( talk) 23:41, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

The current lead image for this article is File:Kevin Pereira.JPG. This image is clearly in public domain, and quite clearly identifies the subject of the article. Any image that replaces that needs to be as clearly public domain or free (see WP:NONFREE), and clearly identity the user. A crappy, grainy image from a phone doesn't qualify on the latter, and it's not clear that File:Kevin_Pereira._With_iPhone..jpeg was uploaded by the subject, so it's not even established that it's free.

SUPER IMPORTANT STUFF RIGHT HERE — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kepereira ( talk • contribs) 23:50, 24 August 2012 (UTC) It's me. Kevin Pereira. I hate that photo, so I changed it to one I can stomach. Can you please stop posting the other image? It's old, and terrible. I appreciate the time you're spending on this, perhaps you could invest that into updating the bio portions with links to my new production company or projects? That'd be super-sweet, indeed.
User:Kepereira is a different account than Kpereira who uploaded the image on commons. Surely, if one of them is controlled by the subject of this article, you can understand that we do not automatically believe users who claim to be TV personalities, nor would their own preferences override common sense that a high res, public domain image is better than a grainy phone image of unknown origin. Gimmetoo ( talk) 23:56, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
Different sites, different logins. I'm surprised, yet shouldn't be, that you're dedicating this much of your life to making mine a hassle. But kudos. Uploading a new, higher-resolution image, owned by me. I hope it makes you happy, otherwise, I hope it makes you miserable.
