  • Not as good as a good article, with too many headings; which should be cut down and created with sub-headings. #Quotes should be moved to Wikiquote, except his most famous quote; #Statists should be cited; per WP:MOSHEAD adjectives and the like "The final" should be remved, in place of (in this example) "Final."

[edit] Article style

Too many headings, and too many paragraphs within those headings (freakin' every sentence gets it's own line).

Yea I know, its terrible isn't it. Seriously - I don't know how you cope. Would you like me to call the Samaritans for you? Jeez...if only I had as few things to worry about.
You cannot be serious. That's what he says.
Johnny is too good!

[edit] kids

"He has six children (three with O'Neal, two with Smyth, and one from Smyth's previous marriage to rock star Richard Hell). " Clearly this means he only has five children.

No... 3 + 2 + 1 = 6. IolakanaT 12:18, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

Is the pic in the box the best Wikipedia can do? I think this image could be heavily improved.

[edit] First endorssment deal

M. signed his first endorsement with Sergio Tacchini, not Nike. He mentions this in his "You can not be serious" book, and also Tacchini's logo is on his tennis shirt in all photos from this period (till 1985) Levg-en 18:12, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
