Seperate Criticism section is needed

This man was a very powerful business leader; a criticism section is vital. I had to search for any mention of (eg.) Ludlow Massacre, because of how well interwoven it is (intentionally to prevent prominence of it? possible bias...) Anywho, let's get seperate and quality criticism section going..

John D. Rockefeller, Jr. to John D. Rockefeller Jr.

There was just a move of a number of articles removing the comma and making "John D. Rockefeller, Jr." to John D. Rockefeller Jr. Does anyone know where the discussion took place? The majority of the incoming links are to ", Jr." as are the ancillary articles such as John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway and John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library. See John D. Rockefeller, Jr. at the Encyclopedia Britannica and John D. Rockefeller, Jr. at the Rockefeller family archive --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 20:39, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to know the same thing, seemed sudden. Snuggums (talk / edits) 21:29, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A.A. took money -

The forward to the 2nd edition of Alcoholics Anonymous that is noted as a reference mentions the Jack Alexander article in conjunction with the Rockefeller dinner. The widely available article from the Post clearly says they took a donation, which they insisted on being small to help with the publication of their book.
