Hello, I wanted some input on this. I changed Dorians profile to reflect on Victor Lord's 2003 ressurection. If Victor was alive, then Dorian's Marriages to Herb, Manuel, David, and Mel were all invalid. I feel this may be controversial, but I want to point out that Dorian left the show in February 2000. When she returned in April 2003, she was to marry Mitch Laurence. She mentioned to Blair on her first episode back that she didn't return sooner because the thought of returning as Victor's wife was "too gruesome". I would like some feedback on this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.241.12.11 ( talk) 01:50, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
We should move this from 'Dorian Cramer Lord' to 'Dorian Lord'. It has been the name she has used for 30+ years (since 1975). She has always been reffered to as Mrs. Lord or Dr. Lord. When she married Mel, se was reffered to as 'Dorian Lord-Hayes'. When she was married to David, it was 'Dorian Lord-Vickers'. When she married Mitch and Herb, respectively, it was 'Dorian Lord-Laurence' and 'Dorian Lord-Callison'. The show has gone out of their way to make 'Lord' her maiden name (even though it is not). The fact is, she is 'Dorian Lord'. Look at this linkto see that the network, ABC, considers her to ber 'Dorian Lord'. I'm actually shocked this article is still named 'Dorian Cramer Lord', because her common name is 'Dorian Lord'. What do you think? Would you support such a move? I hope we have a consensus...

On several episodes on OLTL she's been referred to as "Dr. Buchanan" and also announced herself as Dorian Lord Buchanan. Theirfore, shouldn't it be mentioned at the beginning of the article that her last name is legally "Buchanan". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.94.143.90 ( talk) 06:27, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Dorian was never romantically linked with either Asa Buchanan or Dan Wolek. Only Soap Central (which is littered with biographical errors, due to their allowing anyone to submit character info.) erroneously lists those two as characters Dorian supposedly had affairs with. ABC.com, nor any other OLTL info. site, backs this up. Until we can get another source to cite this, these [false] claims are to remain off the article. —The Real One Returns 09:25, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
Good thing I can prove it. Dorian WAS involved with Dan and Asa, during the early-mid '80s; it was in a period where the creative teams were in constant flux, so these abortive stories often fall through the cracks and do not get frequent mention. Dorian had a brief May-December fling with Dan in fall 1984 similar to her thing with Joey years later, and later, in a separate story, she lost her riches and was forced to become servant to the Buchanans, which led to a brief dalliance with Asa. I believe Paul Rauch quashed the Asa/Dorian storyline when he took over, and created the Pamela Stuart story. These aren't false claims, and you don't have to take my word for them - just go on YouTube. In the case of Dorian/Dan Wolek, simply search for episodes with these characters - their brief romance is there in video record, as is at least one scene of the Asa/Dorian storyline, in which they passionately kiss (look up "Asa, Dorian, kiss"). Just because a storyline is beyond the limits of your experience does not mean it never happened.-- Jbt1138 ( talk) 18:00, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
Are you guys going to go at this forever? JBT, your "testimony" is not a good reference per Wikipedia policy, and SoapCentral has been established as unreliable. Adding the Asa/Dan info without a specific reference might have been fine if others agreed, but now it is being challenged. Rather than rail on about how insulted you are that no one believes you, and sending challengers off on searches, you could have just provided the YouTube links to Asa and Dorian kissing and a Dan/Dorian sequence (which I couldn't find on a quick search but I'm sure you can). So now we all believe you. But here's a problem: YouTube is not an acceptable source for an article, because it is against Wikipedia policy to link to copyrighted material that is made available on the internet without the copyright holder's permission. I suggest you create a clear section/note on this talk page with YouTube links to prevent challenges in the future, but true or not, the burden of providing proof from reliable and verifiable sources is on you. I certainly won't challenge or remove the info because I can see you are correct, but please familiarize yourself with policy before you explode in the future.— TAnthony Talk 23:08, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
