When the so-called Campfire website is cited as being the publisher of Mr. Stanhope frontal nude pics, afterwards the pics appeared into Mr. Stanhope own personal webpage, I spotted it as being a sort of irregular advertising of external website, so I removed it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mister Nighttime ( talk • contribs) 04:18, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
The paragraph beginning in "Early this summer" is basically just plagiarized from the citation at the end. It should all be in quotes or rewritten.
The article states he is running as Libertarian candidate. I know he strongly supports the parties politics and in the past expressed how he votes libertarian, but I haven't seen anything on his site that says he will be running with any association to the Libertarian party. -- Twintone 15:17, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
I've protected this page temporarily due to edit warring. If you would all like to discuss your changes here on the talk page, I'd appreciate it. -- Kbdank71 17:06, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Is that really the best one? How about those Wiki-intensive good ones? -Unknown
[1] Isn't that one more NPOV and informative, or did I miss something? It's also a lot more blue, which I think is a good thing. I dont know who he is but if he cohosts a show with that jackass he is probably a jerk. -Unknown
I'd like to see some citation, or at least some tempering of the Bill Hicks comparisons with things like, "...however, Stanhope's acts invoke a less thoughtful and humanistic perspective than the late Hicks' material."
From the man himself: [2] "An unexpected outpouring of support from factions of the Libertarian Party has solidified my decision to run for the nomination as the Libertarian candidate."
I read a while ago about a blog entry he had, where he bashed the Man Show saying it was juvenile, etc. Does anybody have a link to this so we can possibly include it in this page? Chad Hennings 17:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Why was there a change in what he is categorised as?-- Twintone 06:00, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Can we get a better photo of Doug up? I know Chris Saunders the photographer and am sure he wouldn't mind if one of his shots was used. I put a temporary one of him up that I took this weekend in Cincinnati, just until someone can get a better photo up. Someone PLEASE get a better photo up. -- JerryLewisOverdrive 03:14, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah... Get a better photo... Come on people do I have to do it myself... The photo sucks... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jzenman 23 ( talk • contribs) 04:55, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
What is still up with the photo? It makes me not want to READ anything... Get it? The photo still sucks unless Doug picked it himself... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jzenman 23 ( talk • contribs) 02:50, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
I don't actually understand where the problem lies here, because he has got an official MySpace site with lots of photos: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewAlbums&friendID=27637086 If Doug did _not_ want those pictures of him to float around the net, he wouldn't have uploaded them, would he? --Demon from Walmart 12:51, 27 November 2009 (UTC) These are my favourites:
This recent article now referenced on the main page seems to fill in a few gaps - anyone up for using it to update the main article?
One of the first lines speaks of Doug being a fan of racism. Shouldn't there be a link to prove this claim? Also, it would help if it was explained more clearly in exactly which way he does, if it's true. It's even spelled wrong! For crying out loud... -Unknown
This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 14:52, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Image:Stanhope.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

"By January of 2008, all production on the show was believed to have ended. The official reason given was that production deadlines set in the contract could not be met because of the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, though many feel that Doug's deteriorating health may have been a more likely reason. In Doug's words, "They were afraid that my cancer wouldn't get the kind of ratings that their other cancers got. You can't compete with American Gladiators with a couple melanomas. This is 2008. It's sloppy, dangling throat tumors or pack your shit and get the hell out. Well, my shit's packed.""
Would like to see some citation on this. I don't believe that there are any documentations of Doug having poor health. I actually messaged Stanhope on myspace in regards to this statement, as he reads and regularly responds to most emails. Here was his response: "Its wikipedia - where all my fans can make shit up... what do you think?" Jminternelia ( talk) 18:36, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
This entry is a bit suspect, how do you tag stuff for unsourcedness or verifiability or whatever? I'm not sure how you could prove someone took ecstacy without having evidence of a crime taking place that the police would look into. Sounds made-up. This sounds more like a rumour at least, and more of something that should have 'he said' tagged to it rather than presented as a statement of fact as it is currently worded. Tyciol ( talk) 17:24, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Video here where at 12:15 Stanhope says that if he had to put money on it, he would bet that 911 is an "inside job".

Can someone tell me why this addition was erased? It is straight from the horse's mouth. If you're going to delete it, give a reason. The fact that he thinks that the biggest attack on the mainland in US history is bullshit, is relevant. Certainly more relevant than his stupid tiff with the Palins, which somehow warrants multiple paragraphs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.183.234.192 ( talk) 17:44, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Doug Stanhope. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}

nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{

The podcast section was absolutely shameful linkspamming to each episode, and the descriptions were a complete WP:COPYVIO of content from the podcast site. Additionally, the rampant overdetail, which even include copyvio text about each sponsor, resulted in hugely promotional content, rather than a simple episode guide. The redlink editor who added it appears to be directly involved with the article subject, possibly as a friend or publicist. Whether it's that or simply an overenthusiastic fan, this was in no way appropriate, encyclopedic content. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 15:17, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

There is currently no source for his date of birth. If you add one, you also add a reliable secondary source, or we remove it all. Elizium23 ( talk) 18:35, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
Per WP:BLPPRIMARY we are unable to use public records to support assertions about living people, such as date of birth. A reliable secondary source is required here. Thank you. Elizium23 ( talk) 08:47, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
