In the "Early life and high school" section it says Stainbrook was the "son of a software engineer in the aerospace industry who once worked for NASA", but doesn't make it clear if this was his mother or father. Then, in the "Personal" section, it talks about his family and their background. Normally, this wouldn't be split up into early life and personal sections, it would just appear in the early life section. For now, I would recommend getting rid of the "Personal" section altogether, merging the information about his parents and family members into early life, and then setting the "Uber driver" section by itself. Right now, it overlaps with early life and is mostly superfluous. Furthermore, as time passes and with a little bit of hindsight, I think it will become apparent that there's a little bit too much undue weight being given to his job as an Uber driver. You might want to think about chopping it down a bit and expanding the article in other areas to balance it out. Viriditas (talk) 01:29, 3 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
