This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works.

Note: I wanted to use both the request edit template but also be mindful about using the connected contributor template so I'm trying to use both- please let me know if this is an issue in any way.

Information to be added or removed: Adding a citation to follow the sentence, "Dr. Whitehurst currently serves as the Executive Director of the Forensic Justice Project (FJP)." I would like to add a citation that links to this page: https://www.kkc.com/whistleblowers/?id=59.

Explanation of issue: I think it would be helpful to have a reference to show that this information current and factual. This section doesn't have any other citations and given that the section has a lot of useful information, I think that having at least one citation would give this information more authority.

References supporting change: https://www.kkc.com/whistleblowers/?id=59 That is the webpage I think should be included in the citation, as it explains more about Dr. Whitehurst's role in the founding of the Forensic Justice Project and provides many helpful links to cases and additional information.

I am using the connected contributor (paid) template because I am serving as a paid editor: I am employed by Kohn, Kohn, and Colapinto, LLP. I am also associated with the National Whistleblower Center. I am receiving compensation in the form of payment for hourly work on article edits. Please let me know if there's anything else I need to do to make sure my edits are proposed in good faith and in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use. This information is also disclosed on my user page and my user talk page.
