Please can you both give more detailed feedback on your comments please. How can Early Life & Education be sourced if there are no sources? Naval career cannot be directly referenced as there are no public records of serving officers. There are lots of other sources in the other sections. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samcherry5 (talk • contribs)

That's an easy one, Samcherry5: if any material isn't supported by independent reliable sources, we don't include it in this page, or anywhere else on Wikipedia; that applies everywhere, but most particularly to pages about living people. Here's a question for you: if it's not sourced, where did it come from? Also, please clarify whether you have some personal or professional connection to this topic. Thank you, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:05, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, Ive added some more references to further support the article. But some things are not possible to reference like attendance at a particular school/university. Can you give me some tips on how I can do this? No I dont have any connection with the topic other than the fact that I am gay. Samcherry5 (talk) 13:54, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The original article was placed into draft without reason which is why only limited improvements were made. Since the above feedback was given additional sources have been added. The whole article contains numerous references and sources. I cannot find sources for early life and education as it is not common for educational establishments to publish lists of students. I have no connection to the subject and no financial payments have been paid for the article. Id be grateful for it to be placed in to mainspace, if not please provide specific feedback. Many thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samcherry5 (talk • contribs)

Samcherry5 as Justlettersandnumbers has stated above, you need to either cite the information or remove it. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 ^{talk to me | my contributions} 18:45, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

section removed until sources can be found to support section please moved to main space thanks. Samcherry5 (talk) 06:47, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
