Prank?[edit]

Is "prank" really an accurate descriptor here? Knocking people over for fun is a prank? Crawling under a lady's dress is a prank? Many of these "pranks" would get most people thrown in jail. A prank "is a mischievous trick or joke played on someone, generally causing the victim to experience embarrassment, perplexity, confusion, or discomfort." Many of these events are not "mischievous trick or jokes" but rather common assults. 2601:8:9180:604:219:D1FF:FEA8:25F0 (talk) 01:15, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Given that at least one of these incidents resulted in a conviction for assault, I agree 'prankster' seems a bit generous. I've added the relevant criminal categories. Robofish (talk) 22:29, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article removal[edit]

Can we remove this article altogether? This person has done nothing of note. He assaults people to get attention, and this article's existence is perpetuating his idiotic and criminal behavior. It adds nothing to Wikipedia. Dswislow (talk • contribs) 10:00, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This "article" must be deleted. This criminal should not be advertised by wikipedia. Blogcraft (talk) 17:11, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Then you guys need to list it for deletion at WP:AFD, making a detailed case to support your arguments. Simply disliking the subject or their actions is, by itself, unlikely to prevail there - there are articles in Wikipedia about plenty of disreputable people. Blogcraft - you specifically need to read Wikipedia's WP:BLP policies before making any more edits like this. It's not for you to decide who is a criminal, and you should not use Wikipedia as a vehicle to express your opinions. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 17:28, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The article currently outright states he is a criminal, with content added in this edit[1], though unfortunately without a source. I'm not sure if TMZ meets reliable source guidelines, but it confirms about his conviction here:[2] Robofish (talk) 22:38, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This guy is a deviant, pervert, criminal, and demented. These acts are not funny pranks at all. He's lucky he hasn't spent years in jail, which is where he belongs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8805:5800:AD00:9C9D:6AB3:CBF8:A317 (talk) 00:28, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Clean up needed for "assault" section[edit]

Article subject seems to me (unlike some people opinion (see above)) noticeable enough to have its own Wikipedia article. However currently this Wikipedia articles reads more like something from TMZ's website then an encyclopedia article. Hence a clean up is needed for "assault" section. Reason=too much not noticeable information, no need to fully inform reader about every incident; summary needed instead; ultra short summary needed instead of all "pranks"; or better is only to list the "pranked people" (read "attack" if you feel he attacked people instead of pranked them). What do you fellow Wikipedians think? — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 15:14, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Whackadoodle[edit]

This guy is a total whackadoodle. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8805:5800:F500:3C49:AABD:39BC:DC71 (talk) 23:49, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Madonna prank?[edit]

Shouldn't the incident where he intentionally gave Madonna hydrangeas knowing full well she hated them be included in this article? 174.215.220.247 (talk) 21:49, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
