Unsourced additions from someone claiming to be Adelson's son

Four times now, someone has added unsourced information claiming that Adelson had a son by a woman he had a relationship with. The person adding the information claims to be that son. [1] User:BostonCasinoKid, please do not add this material to the article. You can, if you wish, come here to the talk page and explain why you want to add this information and what kind of sources we can use to support it. -- MelanieN (talk) 19:19, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Remove extra information regarding his widow since she has her own article

I think that only the information that she has an MD, her previous marriage, and her children are relevant to this article since she has her own article that contains all the other information (and that is obvious from her name in blue here as a link, which it should be regardless of if it is linked elsewhere, so that those interested in her can click from there.)

Was it the same uncle both times?

This passage: "He began his business career at the age of 12 when he borrowed $200 from his uncle (equivalent to $3,010 in 2021) and purchased a license to sell newspapers in Boston.[26] In 1948, at the age of 15, he borrowed $10,000 (equivalent to $112,784 in 2021) from his uncle to start a candy vending-machine business." Was it the same uncle both times or were two different creditor/uncles involved? Either way, it should say so, no? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.79.210.190 (talk) 02:45, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
