Hiya. Just thought I'd come here rather than adding another comment. I'm quite new to AfC, so am still learning how it works, but I think I'm getting the idea that I might have come with too high standards! Anyway, I don't think there is a policy on using one source too many times, but if anything, I think it's just a personal 'thing' (I wouldn't say bias - I like accepting new articles!). However, I do generally think an article should have at least 10+ sources (reliable, secondary etc etc) in most instances. If you do disagree, as probably a more experienced reviewer, let me know.
- @Mattdaviesfsic: There is no rules like it needs 10+ sources, and it's important to be mindful of what you are reviewing (because certain topics like African American history have system discrimination and bias). When things are declined during AfC we use linked reasons, the reason you provided doesn’t match your comments, and it appears rather your feelings on the matter than actual reason.

- If you are unsure on how to review because you are still new and learning, maybe AfC isn't the best role right now? You can always go back to AfC, once you have more experience. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 08:58, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
- Whoa, just saw who left this comment--holy moly, that's an impossible standard. I commented on "standards" on User talk:Jimbo Wales, not knowing that I'd run into an actual standard. User:Mattdaviesfsic, no: not 10. AfD proves that a couple of sources is enough already, and here we are talking about a Black man in the 1800s who starts a political party and is written up a number of times, including in this book. If you don't know who Ibram X. Kendi is or why it matters that Niles shows up in a book edited by Kendi, then please don't review such articles. There's something similar with Samuel C. Kincheloe. The man should be prima facie notable, at least for anyone who understands the time period--a man like him attaining such academic positions is notable. But there's also WP:NACADEMIC, and I direct you to #6 in the list. PigeonChickenFish, every one of the articles that I just moved into article space can make it to DYK, with a bit of work; I hope you'll be willing to help the articles get there. I can't and won't work with FloridaArmy, but as I said on Jimbo's talk page, the topics they pick are good and important. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 03:20, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

Are you able to find coverage of Robert T. Bess? I believe there may be two, father and son? The book sources I found are a little thin, but he is quite interesting for various reasons. Thanks so much for all your help. FloridaArmy (talk) 11:53, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
