Who hacked into this page and slandered the OAG under his personal info? Is this normal that someone can just do this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.216.159.143 ( talk) 00:01, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
Hey, so this is a BLP for a politician currently campaigning. It almost exclusively cites things put out by his office or campaign and appears to have been mainly written by one dude with minimal other contributions. I'm not accusing anyone of anything, but it's clear it needs a major rewrite to not be full of peacock terms and to not read like a campaign biography. – Joe N 04:30, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
I agree with it not seeming neutral. JobsOhio should be mentioned. Why? I found a news story mentioning it when I wasn't even looking for it, and if you Google search ohio auditor of state jobsohio, one finds plenty of newspaper results covering Yost and his relationship with JobsOhio. The story I linked to notes that some Republicans didn't appreciate Yost's audit, and that the state legislature passed a law prohibiting such audits in the future. I argue that JobsOhio is more notable that some of the topics currently on the Wikipedia article. Anonymous-232 ( talk) 15:45, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

To add to this article: where was he born, and what is his ethnic heritage? 173.88.246.138 ( talk) 15:22, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
The lede says "David Anthony Yost" and does not mention he goes by "Dave Yost". This seems a bit strange, given that the title of the page is Dave Yost. Should the start of the article say, Dave Yost (David Anthony Yost), or perhaps David "Dave" Anthony Yost? I don't know the standard for this in BLP.

I understand that's a big issue right now, especially considering his comments about the 10 year old, but this article appears to have been written written way to recent, with 4 paragraphs written about the topic (which has taken place over the last 4 weeks), and only a couple of sentences regarding early life (and literally only one sentence regarding the rest of his time has ohio AG).
