WP:URFA/2020 notes

I took a look at this for WP:URFA/2020; here are my comments from a quick glance, Figureskatingfan. For an article with 14,000+ words the FAC seems shockingly light. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but:

I found it odd so many sources lean on the self-published side (About.com, etc.). Is there not commentary available from published sources instead? Lanview Online doesn't seem like a high-quality source, for example.
Some articles from magazines are missing page numbers. What about volume, issue?
Timestamps on television episodes would be helpful.
""Roger Howarth Appearance". Live! with Regis and Kathie Lee. May 1994." → how is someone supposed to verify this? there is no timestamp or even a broadcast date.
