Talk:David Myatt

Introvigne

In the work cited, Introvigne provides no evidence based on scholarly research for the claim that Myatt is Anton Long and used that pseudonym. He merely repeats what others such as Goodricke-Clarke and Senholt claimed, which claims of theirs again are not based on scholarly research. Introvigne thus commits the fallacy of appeal to authority.

Where is the research based on scholarly sources, such as authenticated original documents, which reveals that Myatt is Long and founded the O9A? There is none. Where are the sources you cite which balance the claims by providing Myatt's side of the story? So far, only Koehler in the work I previously cited. Coolmoon (talk) 10:24, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Yet, another scholar of religion specialized in the study of Satanism () and the U.S. military magazine on counter-terrorism () reported the same regarding Myatt's involvement with the ONA and the far-right underground, which is a well-known fact about his life, and the main reason for him being notable. If he was never involved in the ONA and the far-right network, then what did he apologize for? Stealing candies from the supermarket? Come on. GenoV84 (talk) 10:26, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Also, why are you writing down so many sections for the same discussion? There's no need for that. GenoV84 (talk) 10:29, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Removing Original Research

The citations are full of original research and primary sources that almost certainly don't meet WP:RS (some of which I've removed). Wordpress articles about and/or by David Myatt are not objective or trustworthy sources for information about his life or ideas and in many cases are irrelevant anyway. David Myatt is primarily notable for his contributions to far right and to a much lesser extent Islamist radicalism so we don't need paragraphs worth of material about his views on the etymology of Pathei-Mathos or similar things. Also worth noting that this is a man who has been repeatedly accused of aggressively curating his online image using sockpuppets. Not saying I can provide a RS for that because I can't but it's something to keep in mind for anyone who watches this page. DirtyDiaperDavey (talk) 06:01, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Lead section and early life

Nothing has been deleted with the article IMO only rearranged in line with other articles about living persons.

Since the article is about Myatt not about the O9A the long section about the O9A after the lead seems inappropriate - and also seems to contravene NPOV - especially as there is a link in the lead to the detailed Wikipedia O9A article plus the detailed mention of the O9A in a following section. What other articles here about a living person begin with a section not about their early or their personal life but about something they are alleged to be involved with? Example - e.g. does the article about the notorious Aleksandr Dugin begin with his early life or with a detailed account of something such as his alleged links to Putin?

Hence why I have put his early life first and put the personal stuff about Myatt from the O9A section into the personal life section and the stuff about the O9A into the 'occult section'.

Also, why was the link to Myatt's personal website - https://www.davidmyatt.info/ - deleted when even the article about arguably the far more notorious David Irving article has a link to his website? As do many other articles about controversial living persons. Coolmoon (talk) 05:34, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

The Cat Strangler

According to [1], his friends gave him this nickname because of his propensity for animal cruelty. If true, it would not surprise me since the O9A openly encourages sacrificing animals (and humans for that matter) in its teachings. 75.205.106.152 (talk) 14:52, 11 May 2025 (UTC)
