Pleaese fix the typo[edit]

Hello!! I am new to Wikipedia but the typo on this page is driving me insane and I don't think I have the correct permissions to fix it:

The second paragraph says 'Den Niro's first collaboration with Scorsese was Mean Streets (1973),' rather than 'De Niro'

Thanks! :) Smaklosa (talk) 19:30, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

add [[ ]] to Tiffany Chen's name. Tzen22 (talk) 07:43, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: The only Tiffany Chen we have an article for is a 65 year old film producer in Hong Kong. Per currently cited sources, the Tiffany Chen De Niro had a child with was 45 last year, so that's the wrong person. If we had an article on this Chen we could link it then, see WP:WTAF Cannolis (talk) 07:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think film director should be mentioned in the lead and in the Infobox. I think that film director should be on here. Because he directed 2 films. Should film director be included here? He directed 2 films.

"greatest and most influential actor" needs context[edit]

Simply stating that De Niro is the "...greatest and most influential actor." is a strangely truncated statement. Is it not standard operating procedure on Wikipedia to include context for the greatest blank in your field statements? The listed sources say both that De Niro is one of the best of his generation and that he is one of the best of all time. Which of these should be appended to the "greatest and most influential" claim? I'm thinking of his generation because there are two cited quotes making that claim and only one stating "of all time".

Hello there. He is one of the most influential actors of his generation.
