Untitled[edit]

I removed the comment about interviewers saying Merle was the "most sane" of the group. As William Weber was no psycho, just watch the videos,... if anything he was the "most sane". Any thoughts? Also added the El Duce fact, which is 100% true, but only verifiable if you directly contact Merle (which is where I got it). --MadDax 18:51, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:V, facts should not be in place without a verifiable third party source. On the grounds that no citation can be obtained outside of directly contacting Allin, I'm removing the comment and, with it, the Trivia section, as there is no other triva. ZachPG 00:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Birthday[edit]

Merle was born on April 9th. I know because he just told me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lloorren (talkcontribs) 20:05, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh for fucks sakes people, stop changing his birthday to September 1st, he was born on April 9. His Facebook is even set to April 9th. You shouldn't update this information without talking to the man himself. The only way the Google search will change to his correct birthday is if this information is preserved.

There has been a lot of misinformation that has been added to this article, so any major changes require a citation from a reliable source at this point. CCS81 (talk) 16:22, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

sex with his brother[edit]

the article states that GG's alleged sexual relations with his brother were hyperbole, yet in the documentary hated GG talks about how when him and Merle were younger they used to "get each other off" after school, how he thought it was normal for the two of them to have sex and he goes on to describe the emberassment they suffered once others in their town found out about these activities. i highly doubt that all of that was "hyperbole on GG's part".68.255.230.218 23:27, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It absolutely does NOT say that in Hated. Why do people keep making this shit up? Are you fucking kidding me?

Tattoo comment[edit]

"He is also covered in tattoos (his are professional ones though, unlike most of his brother's."

In the documentary “Hated” on GG Allin, Merle states this in an interview while getting a tattoo. Also, GG, in his interview on the Jerry Springer show, says that his tattoos have been done by random individuals who happen to be near a needle at the time.

Edit Warring[edit]

The edit war over content in this article has gone on for over a month now. A discussion of the proposed changes to content should take place here before re-adding. If involved editors can't come to an agreement here, this needs to go to either the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring noticeboard for edit warring, or Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. Because this is a BLP article, uncited information should not be included in the article.Dialectric (talk) 15:06, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for getting the conversation going. The nickname "Pinky" and birth name "Merlin" have not shown to be encyclopedic or even true. These edits also introduce endless formatting and grammatical errors and frequent editorializing. CCS81 (talk) 21:49, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

potential vandalism; or citation needed[edit]
