I am attempting to contact Dr. Samenow about using his image on this page. Hopefully I can get some open lines of communication going and whip this article into some shape. Zab 10:03, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
The article is extremely biased and opinionated. No sources are cited. Apart from the segment saying what books he has written it should all be revised. Samenow's research and conclusions were based primarily off of interviews of career criminals serving lengthy sentences in maximum security prisons.
This article reads like an advertisement or promotional fan page for Stanton Samenow. It is badly in need of some objectivity and balance. As it stands now it is unencyclopedic. Shanoman ( talk) 03:02, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
I am the son of Dr. Samenow, representing him.
The entire section "controversy" should be axed as it was not added by a neutral source.
It appears to have been added by one Mike Volpe (see: https://twitter.com/mikevolpe/status/744164168845135872) who is portraying his biased opinion - sourcing his own biased work. Volpe has a clear agenda, which can be easily determined by searching "volpe samenow" on Google. Volpe has gone to great lengths to disparage Samenow on numerous websites.
Volpe's reporting on Dr. Samenow has not been vetted, sanctioned or published by an objective source.
Volpe should not be permitted to edit Dr. Samenow's page, as he is not neutral and seems to be out to get Dr. Samenow.
Obviously, given my relationship to Dr. Samenow I have a conflict of interest, but so to does Volpe...so I respectfully ask he (and/or his surrogates) not be permitted to edit the page and that the "controversies" section, which he added (and stated such on Twitter), be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ssamenow ( talk • contribs) 03:02, 14 July 2016
The subject of this article was notable enough to receive a laudatory obituary in the Washington Post, which states that his 3-volume work The Criminal Personality was considered a seminal work in the field of criminology -- an opinion that I've previously seen in other publications. I will attempt to add some content along those lines to this article in the near future. Ps8v9 ( talk) 13:10, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
