A fact from Kenny Kramer appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 November 2004. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Seinfeld co-creator Larry David modeled the character Cosmo Kramer after his neighbor Kenny Kramer?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2004/November.

there is a problem with the page but I dont know how to fix it.... the problem is with the picture as it overlaps some text in firefox 1.0, can someone fix it please

Is this article really a stub? It's sure more information that I'd expect to find in an encyclopedia about someone a 1990's television show character was based on. How much more in-depth should this article go? JavaDog 03:20, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category:U.S. comedians

He's not a comedian, so he doesn't belong in this category. Category:Eccentrics maybe :-)

From the article: Before he became a model for Cosmo Kramer he was a stand-up comedian Kurt Weber 03:10, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but he's not notable for that. Graeme Garden and Harry Hill don't belong in Category:Doctors, just as Douglas Adams doesn't belong in:

Will most readers of this article know who Graeme Garden and Harry Hill are?? ;-) Seinfeld was never that popular in the UK.... Magic Pickle 14:31, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jewellery Item?

Can somebody enlarge on this please? What did he invent? It's too intriguing to leave hanging like that... Adambisset 19:12, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I will temporarily remove the sentence because it is very vague and cites no sources. The sentence I am removing is: "During the popularity of disco, Kenny created a piece of electronic jewelry that sold so well that he lived comfortably off of it for years." (Antonio.sierra 02:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC))[reply]

The sentence is back in the article, and the reference points to an article that doesn't say anything about the jewelry. I'll remove it. Erniecohen (talk) 02:16, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

References

I am not sure how to properly add references to the article, but I can tell anyone who would like to fix it that the information about Kramer's tours, and his demands for financial compensation for having his name used, etc, can be referenced from the special features section of season 1/2 boxsets. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.224.212.191 (talk) 10:28, 12 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Birthdate

it is necessary to include kenny kramers birthdate in the article. --Funper (talk) 02:55, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

According to Zabasearch (http://www.zabasearch.com), a New Yorker named Kenny Kramer is credited with a May 1943 birthdate. Unclear whether this is the same Kenny Kramer, but it's the right ballpark, certainly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.166.161.61 (talk • contribs) 18:19, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kessler vs. Kramer in Seinfeld

There's nothing in the article about the Kessler character in the original pilot episode. Shouldn't that be in here, explaining how the character might not have ever been named Kramer? As currently written, it would appear no one who has contributed here even knows about the original pilot episode ("The Seinfeld Chronicles") which is not to be confused with "The Pilot" episode. In fact, it was the discrepancy of the last name from the pilot episode that led to the joke in "The Betrayal". __209.179.33.246 (talk) 21:13, 12 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Far more interesting are the reasons why Larry David didn't want to name the character after Kramer... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.158.44.12 (talk) 21:57, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
