I read your post on editors assistance. The tag doesn't neccesarily mean anything negative. It just means it's not quite where we want our articles to be developmentaly. Basically, this article would be classified as a stub, rather than needing wikifying. A stub, is a short blurb about an article that people usually use to get a page created without really doing much to it. Based on the length, it seems to me to be almost a start class, rather than a stub.
Basically what you want to do, is find more sources, add as much information as you can, and get a picture(be careful of the copyright policies though). I would suggest starting with an "early life" section which would include information from birth until he gained notablity. After that, maybe a "rise to fame" style section, and a "other info" style section would be good. Be careful though, because this is a living person it would fall under
Biographies of a living person and as such will have much tighter rules on maintaining a neutral point of view. Good luck and I hope you enjoy wikipedia.
