Studying at Nottingham under James Dunn

I do not understand the uncited claim in the article that McKnight studied under James Dunn at the University of Nottingham. It is claimed that McKnight got his PhD in 1986 - but Dunn was a lecturer at Nottingham from 1970 to 1982, when he took up a professorship at Durham. See "Appointments", University of Durham Gazette, vol. 27, no. Epiphany Term 1983, p. 3

We either need a citation, or to delete the claim. Toddy1 (talk) 21:54, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are a lot of problematic statements/citations even beyond this. Many of the cited sources are simply primary sources (i.e. "this blog exists") and do not support the statement or claim in the article. ButlerBlog (talk) 16:09, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
