Net worth conflicting information

The main article says he has a net worth of $111 billion. The box on the side (sorry, I know you all have a wonderful name for it, but I don't know what it is) says he has a net worth of $99.6 billion and both give "September 2020" as the date for the estimate. Which is it? 82.15.132.29 (talk)

MSincccc I did not want to start the GA review yet but I have some comments for improvement. Currently his net worth is quoted for a given day, I think that is good. However, he is listed behind several others. This list changes often and it is not particularity notable that the list had those members in that order on that day. I would remove the list and just leave it at "the fourth".

Arie Hasit's incorrect claim

Arie Hasit claims Zuckerberg's "FaceMash" put pictures of two males OR two females next to each other, but Zuckerberg said UNDER OATH during questioning that it was in fact "girls" whose pictures were being used this way.

FWD.us Ads

This sentence "in protest of Zuckerberg ads funded by FWD.us" does not make sense in context. What is a Zukerberg ad? The reader, myself included, has no idea. Maybe they are ads supporting Zuckerberg? Or written by him? Czarking0 (talk) 00:23, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Politics Proseline

The Politics section of the article is WP:Proseline I recommend creating subsections around the topics of note and expanding upon them. Czarking0 (talk) 00:30, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
