Comment: While there are now ~60 sources, several of them are either YouTube, Squarespace or Narratively, which are highly unreliable. Please see out list of unreliable sources before resubmitting. Thanks! :) SirMemeGod 16:24, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: See WP:COI. See WP:BLP. Statements need to be sourced or removed, for example the early life section has one source which does not verify the statements made. Greenman (talk) 08:49, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: We don't need any commercial links to purchase books please remove. Theroadislong (talk) 13:16, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Still has entire sections devoid of citations. Further citations needed in other sections too. Paul W (talk) 12:49, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
