To help fix the inadequate sourcing of this BLP, I've suggested some references above, but I'd like to avoid editing this article because the subject is my coworker and friend. Thanks to anyone reviewing requested edits who might be interested! Dreamyshade (talk) 14:56, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Dreamyshade. I've tested a few of the sources at random to make sure they said what you're saying they say. The content looks fine. Do you mind putting it into a draft in user-space rather than bullets, so it's easier to put in?CorporateM (Talk) 06:59, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you CorporateM! I finally got around to this and put up a draft at User:Dreamyshade/Jay Freeman. I aimed to write it as a simple list of projects in a very neutral tone. It's a replacement for the current article up until the footer material (persondata and categories), which should be preserved from the current version.

Additional references that could be useful[edit]

There has been some additional recent news coverage about Freeman's work in Isla Vista and his Santa Barbara County supervisor campaign, but I have a COI on this article (Freeman is a friend of mine), so I'll list these references here instead of adding them to the article myself.
