How can this have been identified as 'exemplary'? It's slightly longer than the Churchill entry, consists entirely of puff and needs reducing to within an inch of its life. The point of an encyclopedia is to allow people to look things up quickly, not to make them lose the will to live. Since it's mostly written by his PR people maybe they could make a start.

Regarding this edit: so just because there is a reliable source for something, it doesn't mean we include it; we're not indiscriminate (not surprising the "residence" field was removed from infobox person in this RfC); where a person currently lives (with no other context) has no bearing on understanding the subject... it's basically trivia; and per WP:STATUSQUO and WP:BRD, this is a new addition and it's been reverted, so consensus for its inclusion should be built on the Talk page. — Joeyconnick ( talk) 19:37, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
Editor Nottedeluce is edit-warring at this Featured Article to restore his badly written, misformatted version. English is not his native tongue, and he's introduced many blatant grammatical and style errors, such as redundancies and italicizing quotations. Another editor helpfully fixed the text, correcting the errors and fixing the badly written English, and was instantly reverted.
I started fixing his errors manually, and quickly realized that there were too many to make it worthwhile, so I restored the good version, only to see it instantly reverted. At this point, within a couple of hours he's reverted me twice, and the other editor once, leaving such edit summaries as his last: "My English is not correct. It is not my native language. For me it is a good article. DON'T DISREGARD THE WORK OF OTHERS!!" He's getting out of hand. Carlstak ( talk) 22:26, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
