Peer Reveiw
I'm not exactly sure what's already on Ross's Wikipedia page already,1 Talking about his wife/ high school sweetheart more would be a good idea if there isn't much on her for his actual page. Also it might be a good idea to talk about why he was on dancing with the stars and how he got to be interested in dancing. Subtle backstory to keep his informative engaging. In the Early years section it sounds like the financial issues made the childbirth easier, you may want to reword that. The whole section is very fact to fact and you might want to make the flow better as that many blatant facts over and over again can bore people. The text seems to lack basic information about him but that is probably due to the fact that you are editing an already existing article. Other then that I think its a good addition to his Wikipedia.
