There appears to a discrepency between the French and English articles. The English version cites "Peyo" as a mispronunciation of his name by an english cousin, the French page cites it as a mispronunciation by a nephew. (unsigned comment by 205.228.104.142 : please sign your contributions by using four "~")
pronounce Pierrot (and that's why I also think that he acquired it in his youth, as Pierrot is a juvenile form or Pierre), but that does not mean that it can't have been a nephew instead of a cousin of course. If I have time (Worldcup starts tonight!), I'll see if I can find it in the Hugues Dayez (spelling?) biography of Peyo tonight. Fram 13:44, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
Peyo was overwhelmed by the success and his health began to fail -I think this needs a citation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.125.137.201 ( talk) 21:03, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

No images, no section on influences, biography is too short, not enough sources used yet... Fram 16:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC) ==High importance== As creator of the Smurfs, one of the most succeesful and internationally known comics series (through the comics, cartoons, and merchandising), he is of high importance to a comprehensive coverage of comics.

This page, and the associated Benoît Brisfer page contain references to the character having been translated into English under the name Steven Strong, but neither give citations for this. Members of the Tintinologist.org forums have been trying to find background for this/ these translations, and have likewise drawn a blank, although one member has mentioned that the name Tammy Tuff was used in the sixties when the stories ran in Giggle, which is coroborated by this blog on the Forbidden Planet site, which is illustrated with examples from the strip under that name. Does anyone actually have an example of when and where “Steven Strong” appeared, if at all? Jock123 ( talk) 15:18, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
