Name
editShouldn't we use his real name, Andrew R. Jassy?Zigzig20s (talk) 16:31, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
- Sources all seem to refer to "Andy Jassy". I did create "Andrew R. Jassy" and "Andrew Jassy" as redirects. We can of course move the article should a consensus emerge. Edwardx (talk) 18:24, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
- Andrew R. Jassy sounds more professional and "encyclopedic" to me.Zigzig20s (talk) 18:28, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
- Perhaps, but even the FT calls him Andy Jassy. We have to go with reliable sources, as set out in WP:NAME. Edwardx (talk) 18:50, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

Part of current event
editThis article clearly needs to be expanded and better protected from vandalism, seeing he could go on to play a much larger role in the grand scheme of things for Amazon. I say that in light of Bezos's recent announcement of shifting to Executive Chair and Jassy inheriting CEO. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BackTheNerd (talk • contribs) 23:08, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- I agree, he's definitely working hard. Jd forsure (talk) 02:52, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

Well, Donald Trump was FT Person of the Year in March 2016: source(archive). What to do with an incorrect statement at Wiki article? Sagivrash (talk) 20:15, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
- Apparently, FT is loose with "Person of the Year". Maybe we need to say Jassy was named a "Person of the Year". -- GreenC 05:42, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
Money $$
editThe article is overly concerned with his income, stock options, price of his house, etc.. sort of reads like a bank loan application. -- GreenC 05:31, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
This article looks like a nazi propaganda...
editI wonder what is the relevance oh him being Jewish? Is this some sort of nazi propaganda website to make it seem like Jews support each other and appoint their own to powerful positions? If not what is the point of mentioning it...? Pls remove it asap because it will only propagate more nazi conspiracy theories... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.106.215.19 (talk) 21:11, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Amazon Construction Workers Burn Down 250 Year Old Building
editHi Andy Jassy, I'm being ignored as the person who owned a historic building on our small town square. Your construction workers burned down my building. Everyone is washing their hands of the matter. It was a building I bought decimated and spent years rehabbing. B and B Concrete was subcontracted by Layton here in the New Stanton, Pa warehouse build site. This building was so prominent it stayed in the news, by all stations and papers for 2 weeks. Will you help me get some remuneration? Jane Altman Jane@riverartworks.org Bchjane (talk) 12:20, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
