NPOV

This article seems to be overly weighted toward persuading readers that Javie is a good guy. (Which he may very well be, but this seems to be rather non-neutral.) Cnikki 16:23, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What changes do you see need to be made? If anything the controversies shed a negative light on Javie. RyguyMN 04:46, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Protection

If any admin reads this, is it possible to temporary protect this article from IP addresses or new users? There was a recent controversial game Javie was involved in and vandalism is going through the roof. Thanks. RyguyMN 04:54, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Conroversy section

The entire section must be sourced, or removed. This is a BLP violation. Corvus cornix 22:25, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did a major copyedit and cited everything I could. It looks to be in great shape now. Thanks for looking out for the vandals to this article. RyguyMN 01:23, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IRS info

I removed the sentence on the IRS investigation into his taxes. Since they found nothing wrong it is not worth mentioning, IMO. Steve Dufour 05:07, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
