Obituary says it all

This is a brand new (unreviewed) article. The New York Times obituary cited in the References so perfectly summarizes the life of Mr. Valency that you could hardly do better than to copy the entire thing into this article. But we cannot do that--can we?? What does an editor do in such cases? I am stumped. I have more material to add to this article, but I am going to wait until I get some feedback. Incidentally, I searched for most references in other articles to Valency and added the appropriate links to this article.--Foobarnix (talk) 16:29, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Belated reply, use the material, but be careful not to make a close paraphrase. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:29, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
