Comment: The sources Forbes Profile WSVN seem good, albeit shallow. They are showcasing an emerging entrepneur, but doesn't really go in-depth and large portion is just an interview.PantherNow is a student newspaper, not really reliable. Ca talk to me! 11:56, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: IMDB is not a reliable source, because it is user edited. Theroadislong (talk) 17:14, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Article featured numerous external links embedded in the body of the article. If these were intended as references, they should be created as footnotes/inline citations. Article needs references to significant coverage in reliable, independent, secondary sources. Paul W (talk) 22:40, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
