February 24 points here for the death of one John Daly (journalist, game show host) in 1991. Some sort of disambiguation is needed, I guess. -- Naddy 12:24, 24 Feb 2004 (UTC)
It would be informative if someone could include whether or not John's parents and siblings are still alive and if so whether or not he is still closely involved with them. Thank you. 68.34.31.38 ( talk) 15:37, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
It's an interesting enough case that, if it's proposed, it should be formatted as a multi-move, and advertised on the talk pages of the disambiguation page and all of the "John Daly (foo)" pages. This closure does not imply any position for or against such a proposal. - GTBacchus( talk) 05:28, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
John Daly (golfer) → John Daly – Pretty much the primary topic as evidenced by the page views. Marcus Qwertyus 07:21, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
The personal life and marriage sections of this Wikipedia article read like a tabloid magazine article. Also, many of the contentious statements found in this article do not have citations for verification. The instructions at the top of this talk page includes the following: "This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about living persons must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous." Therefore, much of the information found under the personal life and marriage sections should be removed immediately to avoid any potential problems.

I'm not sure if it is worth adding, I've seen it added to several other peoples pages that have been on reality shows, but Daly was on an episode of Storage Wars. I'm not going to add it, someone else can make that decision. Zdawg1029 ( talk) 02:32, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
Daly starred in Being John Daly, on the Golf Channel, which aired in 2010. See, for example, http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/02/arts/television/02being.html . Should be added to article. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 22:06, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

Shouldn't there be a disambiguation line at the top pointing to John Daly the far-better-known journalist? It would seem that's the normal Wiki model. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.34.131.212 ( talk) 18:04, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
Currently the information in the infobox field "children" does not match at all what is written in the personal life#marriages section in the body of the article. The infobox lists a different mother to John Jr to what the article's body states and mentions a second daughter not mentioned in the body of the article. Moreover the source used in the infobox is nothing but a name. T v x1 17:22, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: no consensus. This is a fairly ordinary pageviews vs. long-term significance disagreement. Both sides' arguments have some grounding in policy, so given the numerical split I can't say there's a consensus to alter the status quo.

– The golfer is the primary topic as indicated by page views. The golfer is getting about three times as many page views as all the other John Daly's listed. About 86 percent of outgoing page views from John Daly are for the golfer. The John Daly cocktail named after the golfer is the third most sought page after John Charles Daly.
