Cut all the irrelevant stuff about his kids and where they work and what their kids do. This is wikipedia, not a Christmas Card. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.240.171.117 ( talk • contribs) 13:18, March 19, 2016 (UTC)
Arguably, the Cabinet nomination makes this decades-old accusation relevant. See http://nymag.com/thecut/2016/12/trumps-labor-secretary-pick-was-accused-of-abusing-his-wife.html But how to address while adhering to BLP guidelines? Not every well-sourced accusation is true.

I skimmed the edits, and note that this issue has already been the source of contention. That three separate incidents were part of court filings (even if these allegations were subsequently retracted) is notable (again, because of subject's Cabinet nomination). I don't think that it's appropriate to edit the article to reflect this decades-old allegation at this time, as this is a very serious BLP matter. I don't think censoring discussion here is appropriate, either. Once community consensus has been reached, this talk page can be archived. Billbrock ( talk) 21:23, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
gobonobo's suggested balance seems about right. I would also make sure that a phrase such as ", subsequently retracted," is in the introductory sentence. Such accusations are often falsely made in domestic litigation (or, more charitably, heated arguments are magnified into assaults). Assault victims have also been known to recant in similar circumstances. The possibility of the retracted allegations being true might be given some weight during confirmation hearings.

When I searched for him as "Andrew Puzder" in the official website of the President-elect he does not appear, so when I searched up "Andy Puzder" all mentions and articles of Puzder appeared and Trump refers to him as "Andy Puzder". His blog and twitter account are under the names "Andy Puzder". Just a suggestion if changing is name from Andrew to Andy Puzder is appropriate. -- TDKR Chicago 101 ( talk) 05:24, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
Is Andy Puzder Jewish? I recently read a news article about how neo-Nazis and the alt-right (who supported Donald Trump during the campaign) are souring on him now. The article mentioned the nomination of Puzder (alongside that of Gary Cohn) as one of the reasons why. It seemed like the article was implying he was Jewish, but the author didn't say so outright.

I think it's a stretch to include the section titled "Controversial marketing campaign" in this article. It refers to marketing undertaken by Carl's Jr., a subsidiary of CKE Restaurants, during Puzder's tenure at that company. The Salt Lake City Tribune article which mentions two Utah women protesting the ads does not mention Puzder. The New York Times article includes one paragraph on the matter: "And on the political incorrectness front, Mr. Puzder’s company, CKE Restaurants, runs advertisements that frequently feature women wearing next to nothing while gesturing suggestively. 'I like our ads,' he told the publication Entrepreneur. 'I like beautiful women eating burgers in bikinis. I think it’s very American.'" Then we have the Entrepreneur article itself. Content about this marketing campaign is not currently included in the CKE or Carl's Jr. article. Those places would seem to make more sense, as it doesn't appear that Puzder devised the ads (the articles say the Director of Marketing did so), or that the ads were a primary or particularly noteworthy aspect of his tenure as head of CKE. I'm not seeing how the fact that Carl's Jr. ran ads with bikini models that some people liked and some people didn't while Puzder was head of CKE Restaurants is an encyclopedically notable part of his biography.
