The ongoing edit reversions (in which an IP address has deleted the Controversy section, without edit summaries, and an editor engaged in vandal fighting has restored it), can be resolved by the directive at the top of this page:

Controversial material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately.

That is determinative. Unless and until that material is fully sourced and written from a neutral point of view, without pejorative adjectives, it does not belong in the article. I will remove it (if it is still there). Kablammo (talk) 17:06, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Those same considerations apply to laudatory statements. Articles should be written in an encylopedic fashion. Most adjectives are not necessary-- let the facts speak for themselves, and let others (reliable third-party sources-- not blogs; not partisan sources) establish the points.
