 Student 
It just occured to me, is he still a student? It's a small but important point.   

I found a reference saying he *may* not return, but if anyone has something more definite, I'd appreciate it. http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid;=3577262   

It's an odd Wikipedia thing, we have reliably sourced he is a student ergo he is until we have one that shows the status is changed. It's likely the subject will be brought up in an interview or he'll blog about it.   Banjeboi

This might be helpful on the Crush article but not likely on this one.   Banjeboi 

 Fired his Dad 

Not enough time to fully vet this but it seems that when he turned 18 David fired his dad.   Banjeboi 
The person on the page you are citing is giving a fictional review of an album.  Jeff is still David's manager.

 revision to chart 

I know it can be written that he was safe every week but go around to all the AI contenstant charts and you see the result of every week in the chart.   
Yea and they all should be changed. Just as we don't beat the obvious into people we don't need to state ___ has again gone another week. The info of what order they sang is also unhelpful. The lede clearly states he finished as the runner-up and we can give credit to our readers that they will realize that he didn't just sing those songs as a special guest. I'm not going to delete on all those other AI articles but I believe that should happen.   Banjeboi 
 So you think if someone wants to know if a contestant was safe they can go the American Idol season page?   
The chart is a supplement to the text which should be clear. The lede should state as of April 2009 ____ is a contestant. And when eliminated it states that info. Likewise with bottom three info, if it's relevant it will be in a reliable source - and OMG every bit of this stuff is covered - so we then cover it. _____ has never been in the bottom three or ____ has been in the bootom three twice before elimiation, etc. The order they sang? That seems likes it's original research or, sorry to say, fancruft, but not helpful on the biography articles. We have no reliable sourcing that the order impacts anything although it might. It ends up being as trivial as what they wore, their hair, who the friends were in the audience etc. If any of it is covered in reliable sources then maybe. Meanwhile the season article does a fairly good job of organizing the rest. Last year i took this article on and I guarantee it's been a non-stop effort to keep it cleaned up. Most people do have good intentions but there are a lot of fans who insert unhelpful bits. Sorry for not responding sooner but I do watch this
