Poorly Written
This article is in need of a rewrite. Redundant information/paragraphs. I imagine there is not a lot of credible information sources available on Mr. Russell. Seth1066 (talk) 05:10, 27 July 2013 (UTC)


 * What information or paragraphs are redundant? Nightscream (talk) 06:51, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Removed sentence/inaccurate citation
I've taken the liberty of removing a sentence (under 'Career') discussing Chumlee's weekly income, which is inaccurate and misleading. The sentence claims that Chumlee earns $100,000 a week - however, the cited article states no such thing and in fact clearly references that Chumlee has never mentioned any sort of income, nor does it present any information which would allow a reasonable estimation as to his income level.

 * I see Nighthawk reverted the change http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chumlee&diff=594543047&oldid=594482474 saying "It is not misleading, as it is supported by a citation of the source from which it was derived"

Could we add his yearly income is $1,923,000 assuming ((Boob Job / literally a couple hours of work ) x 40)) x 52 87.115.18.127 (talk) 05:29, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

We should have something about his earnings. Also can we please remove that he is a businessman???? Owning 1 shop does not make you a businessman. Selling merch (with your face on it) does not make you a business person.

Yes, owning a single business does make someone a businessman or businessperson! And, in fact, he obviously owns several businesses, including shares in Pawn Stars as described in the article. Rmanke (talk) 22:54, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Vandalism?
I see vandalism on this page, something about IQ of 21 and IQ of 7 at the end of the page — Preceding unsigned comment added by 179.7.212.234 (talk) 03:09, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

Legal or Illegal Weapons
The Legal troubles section states that there were 11 other legally owned firearms, but also mentions felony weapon charges. Is this just a typo, were the weapons illegally owned? 155.95.98.53 (talk) 16:05, 27 September 2019 (UTC)


 * The way I understand it, the guns themselves are legal; possessing guns in conjunction while possessing illicit drugs is illegal. --Gapmtn1 (talk) 16:27, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

Legal Troubles
The Legal Troubles section begins abruptly. Did something get eaten? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8800:7D00:35D0:513A:730A:60AB:A032 (talk) 15:31, 15 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Agreed. Appears that there was a removal of a paragraph, leading to this unclear beginning of section. I reintroduced the paragraph, edited it down, added a few citations (lack of citation was claimed reason for removal).  --Gapmtn1 (talk) 16:30, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

Chumley History
Why is "The first reference to the name Chumley is in the Domesday Book of 1086...etc" even included? This isn't a page for the history of the word/name Chumley. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:19E:8080:98D0:6955:F2E2:B452:4046 (talk) 16:22, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
