this article has the same degree of "research" as all my articles, but due to the nature of the modern world, as a contemporary figure most references are online. As the same material is viewable to anyone, apart from the desire to assemble the information this is no more original than any work. It is frustrating that if using a single source it is accused of plagiarism or breaching copyright, if using two it is accused of insufficient references, but if using multiple it is then accused of creating something as original research. There seems to be no ideal other than adopting university dissertation style which is often inappropriate to the subject matter--Stephencdickson (talk) 11:38, 23 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

There is no issue with citing online sources. The issue is there are a number of claims made in the article that aren't supported with inline citations so its hard to know what is supported with a reliable source and what isn't. This is a biography of a living person and all claims need to be supported with a reliable source that can be verified by other editors. I see that you have created a lot of articles which is fantastic, but supporting each statement you make in these articles with a reliable source would improve article quality and make it easier for other editors.
