Several issues - main bulk of article goes straight into controversies. There's some info in the lede which would be good in the main article but would be repeated. Also the personal life bit has some issues....doing a little fix but article could do with some more editing. Rayman60 (talk) 22:24, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I totally agree. I've added some more info about his early career, but as it stands this article needs extensive cleaning up. I've tagged it for undue weight given to the controversies. His stand-up comedy should be the focus of the article as that is his claim to notability. Peaky76 (talk) 15:05, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
