The article says "It is reported that he fathered 15 children with several different women and, as of 2004, had 50 grandchildren. So that must be an agreed reliable source, to be even included in this article? Why then does the infobox say he had only 3 children, with no source given? 20.133.0.13 (talk) 11:08, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Well, the source doesn't say anything about "50 grandchildren" (so I removed that), and the "15 children" really should have a second source (but since he's no longer a BLP...). Some IP added to the infobox with no explanation - so that has been reverted. --Musdan77 (talk) 02:25, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
