Talk:Dorian Yates

message: Chemical Warfare became Chemical Nutrition when Yates joined. The Warfare name was too hardcore and the brand became more mainstream. The originator of Chemical Warfare left and soon formed his own new hardcore range. --Revolt (talk) 17:30, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

message: There's a section of his infobox that can only be seen in the source editor, wherein his "life partner" is said to be Jack Stevens, a link which leads to what I'm assuming is an unrelated article. Can someone look into this? It's quite confusing. MisterMorton (talk) 09:51, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

message: The fourth paragraph is an orphan, and makes no sense. Does it need to be merged into the first paragraph? Rainbow-five (talk) 21:01, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  'Post Competition Career' section anomaly  

message: A link was provided to an interview with Dorian Yates in which he stated that the holocaust was "exagerrated by the Jews," that "no gas was ever used in the chambers" and that "I don't believe anyone was killed in Europe" in the concentration camps. This was deleted with the reason given that the YouTube link was not a valid source. However, Wikipedia's stated policy on YouTube videos is that they are only invalid as a reference when used to verify an INTERPRETATION of the material. My addition was not an interpretation, but a set of quotations with time stamps of where the quotes could be found. There is no disagreement that he made these statements. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rqc1Z9gjk5s
A previous editor stated when the link was placed in his bio summary that the video "proves his personal opinion," and deleted it from the bio anyway. I agreed that it was a personal opinion and so moved it to the "personal" section in response and it was again deleted. There is no dispute. He said what he said. My addition should be reinstated.

replies: text: In academia, Dorian Yates' interview would be considered a primary source and hold more weight than a secondary source. The individual who flamed my edits insisted that it did not count as a source specifically because it is a primary source. They stated that *only* a secondary source counts for some reason. That does not make sense from an academic or logical standpoint. Critterdun42 (talk) 18:45, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
