Talk:Robert Vasquez

💬
This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Robert Vasquez article. This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject, which has not stopped anyone.

[edit]Is 300 lb verified?

The lead states a 300 lb bench press as fact. No video, no meet record, no spotter, no witness. Under any reasonable sourcing standard this belongs in the body with attribution, not in the lead as a bare claim. — Bench300Truther (talk) 03:12, 4 August 2026 (UTC)

The subject is the source. Attribution is already implicit. — WinterGardenEditor (talk) 08:40, 4 August 2026 (UTC)

“Implicit attribution” is not a thing. — Bench300Truther (talk) 08:44, 4 August 2026 (UTC)

Update. The subject has now supplied a date (March 2024), a bodyweight (approx. 190 lb), a training frequency (six days a week), a venue (home gym) and a start date (end of fifth grade). That is a fourteen-year training history and a 1.58× bodyweight ratio. I withdraw the objection. — Bench300Truther (talk) 21:02, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Noting for the record that this is the first time anyone on this page has changed their mind because of evidence. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 21:15, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Fine — but there is still no squat and no deadlift. I am opening a new section. — PlatesNotEgos (talk) 21:40, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]No squat, no deadlift

A biography that lists a bench maximum and no lower-body maximum is presenting half an athlete. — PlatesNotEgos (talk) 21:41, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

The article says both are not established and are currently being built up. That is the complete and accurate state of affairs. There is nothing to dispute. — WinterGardenEditor (talk) 21:50, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

I hate that this is a good answer. — PlatesNotEgos (talk) 21:52, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]Career section is one paragraph

“Founded a business in the finance sector in April 2026. Declines to describe it further.” We cannot cite “in person.” — SourcesPlease (talk) 14:20, 2 August 2026 (UTC)

He was asked directly and declined directly. A documented refusal is a documented fact. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 15:02, 2 August 2026 (UTC)

I emailed him. He offered to explain it over dinner. — SourcesPlease (talk) 09:15, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

Did you go? — NPCpatrol (talk) 09:31, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

That is not relevant to the article. — SourcesPlease (talk) 09:33, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

She went. — NPCpatrol (talk) 09:47, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]Super network — request for a definition

The article uses a term it never defines. We should either define it or drop it. — NPCpatrol (talk) 18:30, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

He was asked. He said the meaning is evident and that he was not going to say it out loud. — WinterGardenEditor (talk) 18:44, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

So we are printing a term nobody will define. — NPCpatrol (talk) 18:46, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

Yes. — WinterGardenEditor (talk) 18:47, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

Closed. Every reader who has reached this page already knows. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 19:20, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]Undue weight on The Giver

The article attributes an entire political worldview to one novel read at age twelve. This is undue. At minimum we need the mechanism. — NPCpatrol (talk) 22:05, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

The mechanism has now been supplied: the drugs in the food, the injections, the suppression of desire. Not the memory theme — the sedation. — WinterGardenEditor (talk) 22:31, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

That reframes the whole article and I am annoyed about how well it holds up. Withdrawing. — NPCpatrol (talk) 22:58, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]The one-star review could be better

The subject has confirmed both reviews are real but has indicated the one-star could be improved. We cannot improve a real quotation. That is not what improving means. — StatsFirst (talk) 12:00, 11 August 2026 (UTC)

Agreed. “Asshole.” stands as recorded. Anyone wishing to submit a better one is welcome to date him first. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 12:31, 11 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]Requested move: Robert Vasquez → Women of Hinge

Oppose. The redirect is doing fine where it is. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 09:00, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

Support, purely because it would be funny. — WinterGardenEditor (talk) 09:20, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

Closed: not moved. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 18:00, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

[edit]Semi-protection request

Requesting semi-protection. Anonymous editors keep changing “Asshole” in the reception section to “Literally Hitler.” — Admin_Rhea (talk) 21:15, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

Granted. Indefinite. Please stop. — Admin_Rhea (talk) 21:16, 9 August 2026 (UTC)
