As far as I can tell, they are a minor internet comedy duo. All of their albums are independently released--so they don't count towards notability--their documentary is also unreleased and only currently being considered to be entered into festivals (once again, as they themselves released the DVD it doesn't count towards notability under self-publishing guidelines). The only notable thing on the page is their brief stint on TV, but as that only lasted 4 episodes, it's hardly enough to justify a whole article around.
Additionally, a lot of the article seems cut and pasted and sourced from their personal website, which has neutrality issues. Not to mention many of the references are suspect: either broken links, self-published youtube vids, links to their own website, links to non-notable blogs, or articles not about them where they are only mentioned in passing once. 24.190.34.219 ( talk) 05:57, 24 September 2009 (UTC) IVAN 1# FAN —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.244.136.225 ( talk) 13:34, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
if it's up for deletion because they're a "Minor" internet comedy Duo you're wrong, these guys are getting their own show on TLC, they've been on Lopez Tonight, they're not minor what so ever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.108.16.159 ( talk) 17:08, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Rhett and Link are both Christians.
They are "The Fabulous Bentley Brothers" on Phil Vischer's JellyTelly. Here, here, here, and here are some samples of their work with the company.
They also reported in an early interview in May, 2009 that they stated they used to work for a non-profit Christian organization before becoming the famous YouTube duo they are today.
Why is there nothing about this in the article?

I added a couple sentences to address this fact. Littledj95 ( talk) 03:58, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
Some thoughts on the subject: there currently isn't any information on them being Christians on the page and I think it should stay that way as Rhett said himself that it is irrelevant to their goal. [ [1]] Romeowth ( talk • contribs) 20:40, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

In the Infobox, where it says "Years active", "Youtube" must be spelled "YouTube" with a capital "T", and I have observed that the picture of the duo has been removed, so an image would be convenient. Seelamviraj ( talk) 02:50, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 3 external links on
Rhett and Link. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Just wanted to say that there is a redirect to this page, List of Rhett and Link Morning Show episodes, and I want to turn this into its own article, for reference. It used to exist, but it was taken down somehow and turned into a redirect. If I could take permission to make this article, that would be brilliant. Or maybe another user could make it.

Hello, I just wanted to point out that the "and" in "Rhett and Link" is supposed to be an ampersand (&), so if any administrator could change that, that would be fine. Source: youtube.com/rhettandlink Seelamviraj ( talk) 21:25, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
The lead section should be shortened. The last few paragraphs could be rearranged to a new category, or maybe to a subcategory of Internet called YouTube carreer. - Throast ( talk) 21:57, 18 December 2016 (UTC)
This page needs an up-to-date image for Rhett & Link. Will begin search for Wikimedia Commons accepted image. Wikidumbo in the haus. ( talk) 19:31, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
In the section YouTube career/Channels it says that "Their fourth and least used channel, entitled "This is Mythical" (formerly "EXTRAS-RhettandLink"), features bonus and behind the scenes videos." While this was true for when the channel was named EXTRAS-RhettandLink and that it still contains that previous content. It is now its own show that has an episode each day. This isn't a simple bonus channel anymore. Not sure how I should phrase that in the wikipedia article to make that clear. mooviies ( talk) 06:51, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
I just uploaded File:Rhett and Link Headshot Nov 2018.png to Commons and am wondering if anyone objects to using it as the lead image. There are no other recent photos of them with a suitable license. Also, if anyone wants to try improving the colours, please do. Otherwise, I'll try again in a few days. Thanks! — The King of Mars «talk» 16:01, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
WP:ELMIN demands that we keep only one official link for Rhett and Link on this article, since Wikipedia does not provide a comprehensive web directory to every official website. Which option is better: nuke all the channel URLs and keep the website, or keep Good Mythical Morning and nuke all the others (website included?) Pilaz ( talk) 02:20, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
As per Rhett on Good Mythical Morning May 29, 2024 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aN40iokDD_4 this page is “too long.” Link, for what it’s worth, has never looked at it. 2600:1700:F90:6950:ADFE:3BFA:63EA:8179 ( talk) 23:46, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
