Unencyclopedic information removed
I've again removed details which are either redundant (# of years married, which is given in the infobox anyway) or just plain unencyclopedic, in the sense that it adds little or nothing to the reader's understanding of the subject (# of grandchildren, expressed hope to become world's oldest person, personal idea that "eating plenty" promotes longevity, etc.). Please note the requirements of WP:ONUS:
 * While information must be verifiable in order to be included in an article, this does not mean that all verifiable information must be included in an article. Consensus may determine that certain information does not improve an article, and that it should be omitted or presented instead in a different article. The onus to achieve consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content.

 * Agreed. "Consensus may determine that certain information does not improve an article". The material has been reinserted by multiple editors and there is no genuine "dispute" here as to the validity or the encyclopedic nature of the content, just one editor edit warring to gut the article. Your edit has been reverted; Make your case that consensus supports removal of this material. Alansohn (talk) 16:32, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
 * You seem to have missed the sentence now bolded above. As to your edit summary here, you're confusing two different kinds of situations. In the one to which your edit summary refers, the question was one of verification versus verifiability, whereas here it's WP:ONUS, as already pointed out. Welcome to Wikipedia.

 * I didn't miss anything. A whimpering child stomping their feet and throwing a tantrum does not constitute a "dispute" with Mommy and Daddy about bedtime or in Wikipedia regarding content. The multiple editors restoring the material that you have arbitrarily removed on several occasions, with editors supporting the restorations of the reliable and verifiable sourced content is the consensus you seek. The ONUS requirement has been satisfied. Alansohn (talk) 05:53, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * A 2-against-1 tagteam doesn't constitute consensus, which comes from reasoned discussion. Welcome to Wikipedia. EEng (talk) 06:03, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Tagteam? Now *you* have to prove that there is a coordinated effort against you *and* that you have consensus to remove this content. The ONUS is on you now. Alansohn (talk) 06:44, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * It looks like typical unencyclopedic longevity fluff to me. DerbyCountyinNZ  (Talk Contribs) 06:53, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
