It follows the summary style by putting the general information first, followed by important sections detailing certain important events such as the move to oregon and the legal investigations and procedures, this complies with the summary style guideline.

4. Is the article neutral?

The article does not seem to have any editorial bias, in cases such as:

It does not count the Ecclesia Athletic Association as a cult, and only specifies that neighbors called it a “cult”.

5. Is the article stable?

The article is stable, as it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

6. Is the article Illustrated, if possible?

The articles are illustrated with pictures, that have fair use rationales and their copyright statuses tagged. Furthermore, the article media is related & has suitable captions.


For these reasons, the article will be subjected to some further verification and promotion once these requirements are met:

Sentences 5-8 should have citations added to confirm its legitimacy. (I personally recommend Los Angeles Times article: (https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1988-10-20-me-5471-story.html) for the flogging part or any other citation already in another part of the article.

The idiocy do you mean the sentences that begin The October 1988 death of Eldridge's daughter, Dayna Broussard, prompted...? If so I would suggest that nothing in there requires citation per WP:LEADCITE and that all the information found there is, per MOS:INTRO, found in the body where it does have in-line citation.
