This needs a rewrite, since some paragraphs are almost word for word from the bio on his web page.    Ryan W 23:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Should it mention that he has been missing since late 2004? Nobody knows what happened to him, he just dropped off the face of the earth. --Quasar 06:29, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

Is the mention of him being under investigation by the FBI and owing John Romero $10,000 serious, or a deadpan joke? It seems odd that he would owe John Romero anything (unless e.g. he was paid a tonne of cash to design some levels and then just vanished). I suppose we'll never know. -Ashley Pomeroy 19:41, July 10, 2010 (UTC)

While I'm at it a John Anderson, calling himself "Dr Sleep" and living near Pittsburgh, reviewed a few things for Amazon.com in 2006, post-dating his 2004 vanishment. In fact the first review is of Doom, the film, and the text mentions his level designing past. -Ashley Pomeroy 19:50, July 10, 2010 (UTC)
And there's this John W Anderson, who wrote a television screenplay and a book about breast cancer, and who pops up in this article in the New York Times, but although they are conceptually similar - married, kids, writer, not afraid of technology or being in the newspaper - they don't seem to be the same man. -Ashley Pomeroy 20:10, July 10, 2010 (UTC)
