Reorganizing Biography
I think the biography should be reorganized. The UBS Settlement and Award should be its own section, with approriate subsections. Birkenfeld's life after prison should be a section, with subjections. For instance, the "Parole" section does not seem to justify its own, bespoke section. It kind of dead ends the biography. I was going to add some stuff about recent developments, but it seems awkward. We have a seection UBS France, one I came to add something to, but it sticks out, too. Any thoughts?William (The Bill) Blackstone (talk) 19:45, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
