[edit] AFD debate

It is ridiculous that Tyson Mao's wiki page is longer than the wiki pages of many highly accomplished entities, like Goldman Sachs, Sofia Coppola, or Jamie Dimon (one of the most influential people of 2006, according to Time). As such, his self-glorifying wiki that was made clearly for college admissions, has been shortened considerably.

[edit]  ???

This article appears to contain a lot of non-encyclopaedic material - an example chess game, details of rubik's cube solving, "born prematurely". I will delete what I don't think is relevant. - Mysteronald - actually i can't be bothered. i'm surprised this article wasn't deleted as vanity.

[edit] 8 weeks

"just imagine how amazing Tyson would have been, had he not set eyes upon this world 8 weeks earlier than intended". OK, obviously joking, very funny, but should be removed. The addition of cousin Susan is from the same editor. Is that credible?

I have shorted Mao's article because it is simply too long and too detailed and clearly self-glorifying. His chess skills are sub-par when compared to world competitors, and should not even be mentioned. Additionally, it is unnecessary to discuss every media appearance he has been on, and to summarize each. After all, does Tom Hanks' wiki have every movie he's been on, with a full summary for each?
