I added a few. I removed the "sources needed" banner, even though some more sources could be added. There is nothing contentious in the biography, certainly nothing libelous. He identifies as a naturalist in the preface/intro to Making of a Prophet, I just don't have the book on me. The summary of the book is spot-on, although unsourced. The one thing I would like to fine is a source saying he resigned from the church. I think it's best not to make unsourced assertions about someone's religious beliefs or affiliations.

"Vogel has also edited volumes skeptical of the possibility of receiving the future through the word of God."
What is this sentence supposed to mean? -- 91.34.46.73 ( talk) 20:27, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
Is the 1983 *How to Win with Women*, listed in the article's *Works* section, really written by the same Dan Vogel who is the subject of this article? There are quite a lot of "Dan Vogel"s out there & the subject matter is pretty dramatically different from the rest of his work.
I can't see any indication *How to Win with Women* was written by the Dan Vogel who is the subject of this article. It is listed by Amazon along with other works by "Dan Vogel" but Amazon commonly links together authors who happen to have the same name, so this is really no proof.
Looking at the history page, it looks like the information about this publication was added by a non-logged in user with IP address 98.216.152.212 and this is the only edit ever made by this user. That indicates to me that it is possibly low quality. I'm going to remove the reference. If anyone has actual evidence this book was written by the subject of this article they can add it back. Even if the book is written by Dan Vogel the subject of this article, the subject matter of the books is different enough from the topics of the other publications listed and the topics of the biography that little or nothing is lost by omitting this work. On the other hand, if this book is by a different Dan Vogel then including it on this list of publications gives a very inaccurate picture of the work of the subject of this article.

The IMDB page * Dan Vogel at IMDb https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5632964/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t119 was linked on this page. However, the "Dan Vogel" who appeared in the episode of the TV Series "Conspiracy" about the Oklahoma City bombings is an ex-FBI official of that name who was born in a different year and has a different middle initial than the subject of this article. See https://newsok.com/article/2684675/local-fbi-spokesman-quietly-retires-murrah-blast-topped-agents-25-year-career For that reason, I removed the IMDB link in this article.
