I reverted the edits done on 11 November 2017 for several reasons. That edit removed all citations given and expanded the size of the article by a factor of 10. Such verbosity with no sources cited gives me a strong suspicion that it was a vanity edit by the man himself or one of his close associates. I found out about this man from a 2015 New York Times article I read today. The former version of this article provided much more succinct, relevant and reasonably well-cited information. I hope that whoever wrote that version understands why I reverted it and to please provide extra citations when contributing to Wikipedia pages.
