The DYK says the surgery was on his left arm. The article currently says right elbow. So which arm was it, the right or left? I think the DYK is correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8805:5805:A00:4844:F644:959D:314D (talk) 12:18, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for pointing that out. The DYK was correct, the article was wrong. I fixed it. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:11, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
