@TulsaPoliticsFan Found a source that would validate the adjunct professor experience. He has a "Rate my Professor" profile with several students who have left him reviews during his time at Connors. However because it is social media, I am unsure of whether it would be proper to include it.
It looks like Rate my professor is user-generated content so probably not. It may be somewhere in the other sources. I just started reading the sources today and only read five or so. I just tagged the mayoral bio and the church bio because those are biographies that he likely has direct influence on with little editorial oversight. So they are not WP:INDEPENDENT and primary, so they stuck out to me as the first sources that needed replacing. A faculty bio may still be a primary source, but it'd be more independent than the mayor or church bio. If it's not in secondary news sources, I'd check for something from Connors talking about him being a professor there. A hiring announcement or blog post from the university (as long as he didn't write it or have editorial control over it) would probably work.

@TulsaPoliticsFan I have some better sources regarding Coleman's previous education. They still may not be independent enough, however I think having good amount of quasi independent information is better than nothing. This should hold the article over until I can find an better independent source. Trey Wainman (talk) 17:52, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
