Debatable relevance
I seriously debate the relevance of the existence of a Wikipedia page for Mr. Doner. I myself have a similar talent and, as the saying goes, "it takes one to know one." I can communicate in over 10 languages but would not say I speak them per se. Doner clearly memorizes large swaths of speech. There are many claimants to the title of hyperpolyglot and while I certainly cannot say for certain, I don't think this achievement (impressive though it may be) is worthy of commemoration in Wikipedia. I invite critique, including from Mr. Doner himself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexandermoir (talk • contribs) 13:53, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
I fully agree with Alexandermoir's opinion. I am impressed by Mr. Doner's abilities but I do not think he is eligible for a Wikipedia page. Information on Mr. Doner can be easily found on the various accounts owned by Mr. Doner on YouTube etc. .Paperpaste (talk) 17:08, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
