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)
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)

- Thanks reviewer! If you could give some attention to my Talk page comments as well I would appreciate that. Czarking0 (talk) 15:53, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
- Also I think you should double check if MSinccc is eligible for the nom under "significant contributor" Czarking0 (talk) 15:54, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
- I am. I had even posted on the article's talk page long ago having also pinged the significant contributors. I would like to assist in the article's promotion having been familiar with its contents. Looking forward to your response @FeydHuxtable and @Czarking0. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 13:30, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Yup, as one of the top 10 contributors you're defo eligible to put this up for nomination. I'm expecting to engage more substantially with the review, including with Czarking0's useful comments, starting this weekend. FeydHuxtable (talk) 18:09, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Preliminary review
Looks great from an initial skim. Per Zuck's status as a tech titan, I plan to take some time on source-text integrity verification. And on reviewing the coverage of Zuck more broadly to confirm the article is NPOV. So it might take a little longer than the standard week before we wrap this up.

Additional Comments
Not the main reviewer but I have some concerned about the quality that I want to ensure are addressed before GA status.
- I think FN9 letsintern is questionable for WP:RS
- I think FN10 Child prodigy is perm dead?
