Object - People say the article on Ian Thorpe, is too big, which is why I am doing this. Blnguyen ( bananabucket) 06:40, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, I kept it general, since Thorpe was also a famous campaigner against drugs, which is why I didn't use the word allegations. In addition, allegations may also hint at guilt, and since there are many facets to this, ambiguity may be better. Blnguyen ( bananabucket) 06:56, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
You will notice Thorpe has not come out and said the level was x in comparison to the medical accepted limit, must be because it would not help his im inniocent stand.
The "No proof" of drug taking is the same as some guy with 100,000's of dollars hidden under the bed. You cant prove its from somthing illegal, but its very susspicious and reason will tell you the truth!-- 203.192.92.73 14:25, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
In the press conference the head of Asada held he mentions some exact figures. [1] -- SAS87 16:39, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
I see "Hunter" with a page number, but what is Hunter? Tony (talk) 02:02, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
Thorpe has never tested positive to doping so why does this article exist? It seems as though its based on media speculation and suspicion. Michael Phelps and Ye Shiwen have also been accused of doping, but they dont have articles for it. Portillo ( talk) 04:20, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
I think the lead is misleading. It doesn't state clearly that there has been no formal findings of doping. It also doesn't state that Thorpe's criticism of the testing has been that it was inadequate. It leaves ambiguity to if he ever was found to have done any and why he criticized the tests. It also leaves out that he has been vocally against drug use.
