I'll do the reviewing of this article. I'll get started sometime soon (15-30 minutes).
Overview
Things are mostly good. I'm using the template below to do this review as it is a lot easier.
Text
- Are all of his siblings dead? If not this should be in present tense (are vs. were).
- Colbert children- When reading this you assume that the article means Stephen Colbert's children, not his siblings.
- "In interviews, Colbert has described his parents as devout..." would read better as "In interviews, Colbert describes his parents as devout...".
- Fourth paragraph about plane crash- This reads rather oddly. I'm not sure if this is a BRITENG or something else. (What is this written in American English? I can't really tell.
- Awards and honors
Stephen Colbert#The Colbert Report should be longer, this is, mainly, what he is famous for.- His work is referenced to in other sections, the section explains his work substantially without taking over the purpose of the other article. —Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм • Champagne? • 4:08pm • 05:08, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Comments
Breadth of Coverage: Any thought to having a section of the article listing critics comments on his work? I know his White House Correspondents' Dinner was not well-received. Also, although I personally enjoyed his 2010 Congressional testimony and thought that it was worthy of "C-Span 1", there were a number of critical reviews.
