Removing circular reference from Biography and Career section.

edit

I checked the Michele Martin Taylor and not only is the reference in this article circular, the claim itself isn't even mentioned in the Taylor article. For this reason, I changed the tag from circular to reference needed. In addition, I'm about to split up the current #1 reference into separate references, because this annoys me to no end, that is actually several references in one and makes it confusing. Thanks!

The "unclear citation style" warning.

edit

The citations here are an absolute mess. I think this article could be improved a number of ways, but the references here definitely need fixing. To begin with, if you look at the citation (presently numbered 13 but may change) that begins with "Holter Museum of Art..." you will find a number of sourced combined into one. See if you can count how many. I made some changes today. Wikipedia can be very confusing when it comes to reference style. For this reason, there are really only two formats needed. The first is {{cite news}} which will work with any periodical or anything that has been serialized, like specific television series' episodes, comic books, blogs, etc. For example: |title=Murder Takes the Bus (the episode name of the) |work=Murder She Wrote (TV series name) The next is {{cite book}}. You can use the book template for movies or an entire television series, rather than individual episodes or actual books. It works the same as |title= but instead of |work= you'll add |publisher=. When it comes to websites, there is usually a special URL that you wish to link to, so use news for that one. You get the idea. Now, if anyone wishes to try and clean-up this article, I would love for you to do so. MagnoliaSouth (talk) 00:20, 20 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
