Pornographic Past

I actually agree with the admins. Let's not include his pornographic past yet. We all know it's him, but we still need confirmation.

The question is, what qualifies as a reliable source for his situation? Emo524 (talk) 04:16, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sources listed in WP:PW/RS. Besides mainstream reliable sources would also pass. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:27, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

At least one approved source from WP:PW/RS found. UniNoUta (talk) 01:06, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

UniNoUta That'll do. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:35, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this belongs in the intro for the article, his porn video(s?) seem to be a one-off and he didn't make a career out of it. Sylvester Stallone had a similar thing going on and it's not mentioned in his intro and he doesn't have any pornographic categories listed. This separates them from others like Chyna and Tammy Lynn Sytch, who did have a notable career in porn.LM2000 (talk) 20:06, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well in the case of Stallone, he wasn't actually doing the porn scenes, and it wasn't very significant to his career considering he only did one porno. Where as Lars Sullivan's porn career was much more significant. He had a stage name and a really high production quality, and he did a lot of videos. This is why I believe it should be mentioned in the intro along with his stage name.

It doesn't have to say "Gay," just "former pornographic film star." Emo524 (talk) 20:29, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question, why is the name Mitch Bennett in his "Ring Names?" That doesn't belong there. Emo524 (talk) 20:33, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'll have to admit that I'm not an expert when it comes to this incident. There's only one sentence describing his videos in this article and it's in the same paragraph as his troublesome tweets. The source link is dead and most coverage I've found comes from unreliable sources. WP:LEAD says the introduction should only cover what he's best known for. If the porn is a defining characteristic then the article needs to do a better job covering it.LM2000 (talk) 20:46, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I removed it since that website seemed to have removed the article and it needs multiple high quality RS to confirm per WP:REDFLAG. Morbidthoughts (talk) 02:48, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
