Hey {{U|LoverOfArt}}, before you make another claim about knowing who a certain Editor is in real life, I suggest you familiarize yourself with [[WP:OUTING]] and the seriousness of the violation it represents. --[[User:Scalhotrod|Scalhotrod]] [[User_talk:Scalhotrod|(Talk)]] ☮ღ☺ 01:53, 15 February 2015 (UTC) |

: Hey {{U|Scalhotrod}}, before you attempt to make a pathetic case that it constitutes "outing", I would suggest you think long and hard about whether someone who voluntarily posts under their real name can be "Outed" for being who they, in fact, actually are. And seriously, protip, "Scalhotrod", (geo identifier and hobby both closely associated with Bilzerian). If you want to guerrilla-manage your own WP page, tell your agent/rep/whatever to at least create a sockpuppet account that DOESN'T INCORPORATE HIS REAL NAME OR OTHER PERSONALLY IDENTIFYING INFO.

::Hey {{U|LoverOfArt}} and {{U|Scalhotrod}}, how about you both stop bickering? People who edit using their real name as a user name can't truly be outed as they've already done so themselves. Then again, it's altogether possible the individual using a real life name as their user name could not be that person at all. Until they admit they actually are that person, we have no way of knowing they are who they say they are. And even then, it could be a bogus admission. -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">[[User:Winkelvi|WV]]</span> ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">[[User_talk:Winkelvi|✉]] [[Special:Contributions/Winkelvi|✓]]</span> 03:10, 15 February 2015 (UTC) |

Misleading description?
Isn't the description as actor a little misleading? He appeared as a stunt actor in one movie and he paid to be in Lone Survivor. Also, he sued Peter Berg's production company as the contract was $1 million for approximately 80 lines in the movie which was reduced to a mere 5 words or so. I am no hater trying to minimize it but the description would suggest he has an actor career while he clearly has not. He is not even mentioned in the cast of both other mentioned movies. 82.181.94.197 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 10:41, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
Instagrams Biggest Playboy
Dan has been in the news a lot this week and he is being referred to as Instagrams Biggest Playboy. Should there be a reference to this, as this is how he is gaining the interest of the general public? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2613072/Video-shows-Instagrams-biggest-playboy-throwing-porn-star-roof-breaking-foot.html 31jetjet (talk) 00:29, 28 April 2014 (UTC) 31jetjet
- I'm not sure this kind of negatively slanted information is appropriate for a BLP. I'd be open to changing my mind depending on the language you'd like to add though. Jeremy112233 02:35, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not sure why somebody who seems to be nothing more than a former soldier without success, a gambler and investor in whatever without visible contribution to human society should be in a wiki at all. Oh, I forgot: He's an American. O.k., that's something else. 84.151.153.230 (talk) 19:19, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
- Wikipedia has quite a few documents that describe how an individual is determined as notable. They should explain any misgivings you may have. One can always challenge a page based on those policies as well if you feel the page is undeserved. Jeremy112233 16:34, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Semi-protected edit request on 17 May 2014
He states that he was kicked-out
Kicked out does not require a hyphen.

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. — {{U|Technical 13}} (t • e • c) 13:26, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
Who he is and what he is known for
Dan Bilzerian deserves a Wikipedia page due to several things: - his large internet / social media following, specifically on instragram / facebook / twitter - where he is one of the most followed celebrities in America - perhaps, his success in a few poker tournaments
The majority of his wealth is from his father. He has made some money playing poker, but the most of it is from his father.
So there should be more focus on his internet following and what causes that. He lives a lavish lifestyle, posing pictures of near naked women, guns, boats, private jets, and partying constantly.
He has not invested in a significant number of companies - or raised money from other to invest in companies. Furthermore, he has not invested in any notably successful companies. As a result, the "venture capitalist" tag is inappropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.82.81.252 (talk) 17:23, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
When you look up his poker winnings it is obvious that over 90 percent of his fortune comes from his father. There is no mention of this in the article. He might like to call himself a venture capitalist but Wikipedia is supposed to be factual. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.90.127.86 (talk) 07:10, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
This wiki is nothing more than a free advertisement. His "accomplishments" are nothing of note. He is nothing more than a self-deluded trust fund brat who claims to have almost been a Navy SEAL, claims to be an actor but only by buying his way into movie roles (and then getting edited out) and claims to be a professional poker, though his earnings are less than he what he spends daily on paid bikini models to hang on him during publicity photo shoots. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.253.179.22 (talk) 02:02, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
Notability
I am not on "Dan-O's social media team", but the subject is clearly not notable for how he has obtained his wealth, but far more for what he has done with it. The sources cited back this up as they mention the subject having a trust fund, but little more beyond that. --Scalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 18:42, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
'Venture Capitalist' needs to be removed
There are no sources to back up the venture capitalist claims, so according to Wikipedia policy they should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.90.55.242 (talk) 02:58, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
- I agree. I'm removing it. It has no readily identifiable basis in fact, however its not very hard to estimate his motivations for claiming that. Removed. LoverOfArt (talk) 07:53, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
Heart attack quantity
The cited source makes it pretty clear that he suffered three heart attacks. Is there any constructive reason to change that to two, or are the IP editors just disrupting the article with the repeated change? —C.Fred (talk) 18:07, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
- Looked like IP vandalism or hi jinks to me. -- Winkelvi ● ✉ ✓ 19:50, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
