Promotion removed

I have removed a lot of overly promotional and largely unsourced text from the article, and notified the editor who added it. Bishonen | talk 16:01, 25 October 2019 (UTC).[reply]

It doesn't look too bad right now, although sources for the childhood/education/personal life section are missing, and checking the book references would require fighting with google javascript bloat and then deciding how to reword things in a bit less of an "I know what Meaza was thinking" voice. As a prominent person, more references should soon become available. However, if there's no ongoing editing battle or by the suspected editor, then the COI tag should probably be removed.
