Dear Z1720‬. You wrote: “Please cite your sources using footnotes. There should be a reference at the end of every paragraph, minimum, since this is a WP:BLP.” Though there were about 40 footnotes and 6 external links (allowed by Scope creep), I transferred the external links to footnotes. Now there are no external links. Some references to the published biography were duplicated to a few places, and now there are references in all paragraphs, and also at the end of these paragraphs.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Si14360 (talkcontribs) 19:28, July 30, 2021 (UTC)

Dear Z1720. Thank you for your answer. Sorry, I do not understand what citations must be replaced and what citations must be new. Can you give examples what citations are wrong? I think that citations in other Wikipedia pages are similar to those in the draft. I do not understand what I need to change before resubmission.Si14360 (talk) 21:21, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Dear Z1720‬. Thank you for your comments. I deleted the former references 10, 12-14, 16 for lists of publications (only two references were left). Scope creep suggested to remove the references 12-16, you suggested to remove references 10, 11, and 12 (different references). Former ref 8 (to Wiki data) was removed. As Scope creep suggested, I deleted the sentence about Wikipedia pages in other languages, and former references 19-22 we used to populate other sentences. Most sentences in early life and career now have references. May it is not needed to put a citation to every similar sentence? For example, in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Boss there are no citations in career. I hope that editing of the sections, other than achievements, are close to the end.
