Adams's middle name "Raymond" was added in this edit. I can't find a better source for this and wonder if it's worth keeping. 70.163.208.142 ( talk) 03:40, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

I undid this edit, but it's been reverted. I have a few problems with this statement. It repeats what the third lead paragraph says and focuses on Dilbert over Adams. It implies that the comic stopped being a "cultural touchstone" after cancellation, which isn't for us to say; sources in the article simply report the drop from syndication and why. I considered removing "until" and starting a new sentence to just read "It was dropped from syndication and now runs as a webcomic", but that's even more repetitive and disjointed. Maybe we should drop "and becoming a cultural touchstone" altogether. 70.163.208.142 ( talk) 20:45, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
I removed Category:American people who self-identify as being of Native American descent because the article says that Adams said he had a small amount of Native American heritage, but later found out through a DNA test that he had none. So, he may have previously said he had a small amount, but says none now.– CaroleHenson ( talk) 06:47, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
