- Comment: In articles on living people (WP:BLP), pretty much everything needs to be supported by inline citations to reliable published sources. Now only the 'Awards' and subsequent sections are referenced – where is all the rest of this information coming from? DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
