Vanity?
He sold the F1 according to http://moschus.livejournal.com/81449.html
This article reads like Elon wrote it himself, vanity and all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.21.41.109 (talk) 20:57, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
An anonymous writer changed B.S. in Physics to B.A. in Physics under education. I have never known physics to be a B.A. degree, but does U. Penn. do it differently? Dschmelzer 15:54, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Does he really have a B.S. in Physics from Penn at all? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.177.197.119 (talk) 18:46, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
Is Elon Musk Jewish?
Elon is a Jewish name. Could he be Jewish? What is his earlier history?
Well? Is he? Being South African with a name like Elon Musk, I would say there is a 90% chance that he is Jewish. Why doesn't someone ask him? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.126.159.9 (talk) 01:44, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- His religion is irrelevant to the article. Petershank (talk) 19:01, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Philatrophy
This is definitely not related in the article. This topic was just made up and something put under it. Delete the heading ? --Dtox 15:53, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
Citizen of?
Can we call him a South African-America.. or American or Canadian-American etc.. what are his citizenships? -- Stbalbach 04:15, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
Donations to Misplaced Pages?
Does anyone want to look and see his donations to wikipedia? I see a recent one for $1000, and I'm sure there are more.--72.132.52.138 05:54, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
- That's great (cheers Musk), but I don't think it would be appropriate to mention it in the article. -- Stbalbach 13:46, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Birthday?
We have had two versions of his birthday: June 28 and November 7th (both 1971). Which is correct? --Stbalbach 21:03, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Anon editor User:66.163.20.125 removed the reference to Nov 7th from the article (it said "Born Nov 7th or June 28th"), so I assume this editor on good faith knows what they are talking about. -- Stbalbach 12:32, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
Pronunciation
How do we pronounce "Elon"? ► Adriaan90 ( Talk ♥ Contribs ) ♪♫ 17:41, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
- On 60 Minutes on October 5, 2008 they pronounced his name like the Israeli name, Ilan. -NYC2TLV (talk) 00:23, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
Tesla Motors
i am far from an expert on Mr. Musk but i wonder at the lack of detail on Tesla Motors. Does he own it? What is it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.118.89.222 (talk) 16:41, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
controversy?
martain's forced resignation, Elon's taking credit, etc. it all should be in the article. TrevorLSciAct (talk) 18:15, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
- Well, it is done. And to spice things up, there is also the memo leak entrapment plot. - Jacob Poon 20:36, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Chess master?
I think he is.--Jrm2007 (talk) 09:14, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Educational credentials questioned
The founder of Tesla motors has sued Elon Musk. Interestingly, the complaint states that Elon Musk lied about attending graduate school at Stanford and a second degree in Physics from the University of Pennsylvania.
Here a link to the complaint:
http://openaccess1.sanmateocourt.org/getpdf/pdftemp/200906101523474407/A-0000081554-1.pdf
If these allegations are true then perhaps a section outlining this controversy should be included in the article, certainly the legal battle itself has become international news.
