Flow[edit]

This article seems to contain fragmented ideas, almost like it was just copied from another place with some very basic reworded which didn't exactly go to plan. Someone fix this, or i'll fix it myself one day. Rewording, or basically a Rewrite is needed as suggested from before 144.138.83.250 (talk) 11:23, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Training section[edit]

(from User talk:Quarl) Why did you delete a training section of an article about Doug Pruden? mixer 06:34, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mixer, thanks for asking. I removed that section because of a number of issues, the largest of which is that it's not attributed to a reliable source. How do we know that Pruden starts the day by reading the Bible? How do we know that he does 1000 pushups a day (even if he says he does)? At best, it would say "According to Pruden, he does 1000 pushups a day." If you have a source for these (such as from an interview), please add them back, attributing the claims to who said them and citing the source. —Quarl ^(talk) 2007-02-26 07:08Z

Misleading statements[edit]

A lot of the information of this page is sketchy at best or just plain misleading. For instance, his 'appearance' on David Letterman consisted of him being one of two dozen random people Dave called in off the street with pizza boxes (view the scene here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NsjQQXGUDk). The article makes it sound like he was an actual featured, interviewed guest. I would be willing to bet his other 'appearances' are of similar quality, and frankly if they are they don't merit mention in the article. —Nhauer ^(talk) 2010-06-25 —Preceding undated comment added 10:36, 25 June 2010 (UTC).[reply]
