It's in need of quite a trim, in my opinion. Anything that can't be found in third party sources needs to go. The article will be a lot better as a result; easier to read and more encyclopedic. WP:V needs to be observed here. --91.135.14.165 (talk) 22:56, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I took it upon myself to remove much that violated WP:NOR, WP:PEACOCK, and various other of our policies. Would anyone like to help add some properly referenced stuff in? I feel sure it exists. --John (talk) 23:43, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've added some more referenced and appropriate material. Do we think the refimprove is still merited? I can find a lot of these claims only on Chernin's own website and would be happier with better sourcing. We could really do with an expert in the field. --John (talk) 05:43, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Needs to be split into cats.--John (talk) 02:43, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --John (talk) 05:57, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have updated the article to reflect this.
