Abused: Breaking the Silence citations[edit]

Not sure how necessary it is to have six citations for that the sentence about Abused: Breaking the Silence. It seems close to citation overkill to me, so maybe, if possible, it should be narrowed to the two or three best ones out of the six. If, however, it the consensus is to keep all of the citations, then maybe they should be bundled so that that single sentence doesn't appear to dominate the entire article. There are eight citations total and six of them are for that particular film so it kind of makes the article appear unbalanced, stylistically speaking.

Bundling the citations could be done as follows:

The abuse was catalogued in the 2011 BBC documentary Abused: Breaking the Silence.[1]

Just a suggest that I feel improves the article's appearance. - Marchjuly (talk) 04:40, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not averse to multiple citation tags, but am trying your suggestion. Removed the following link because it is dead at this time, not in the Wayback Machine, and I cannot figure out how to make The Tablet's archive section work:
The Tablet lists no 17 June 2011 issue—is the date wrong? Searches on the article title also come up empty.
One reason I favor keeping all these citations is some of these sources might provide other information as this article develops. Also, sources are sometimes aggressively challenged for this type of subject, so it's worth having a few spares. / edg 01:53, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
