You said, "Please cite your sources using footnotes." I don't know of any sources that needed footnotes in my submission. Could you please give me one or two examples from my submission? Alfa137 (talk) 16:18, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies for the brevity of my original feedback. First the article lacks an adequate lead - wht is the individual actually notable for. Secondly all information should be referenced using inline citations - see WP:REFB, rather than just a stack of sources at the end of the article. Happy editing. Dan arndt (talk) 02:23, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This means "please cite the sources of your information, using footnotes". The detailed answer at the Teahouse from @Jayron32 should explain the issue. Hope this helps. David10244 (talk) 06:04, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
