Broken code, unreferenced content, non-independent sources

I will again remove the content restored by Phenocia. There are several problems with it. Firstly, when Phenocia restored it, only the appearance was restored, not the wiki code. Thus, references were broken, and only non-functional tags (like ^[32][33]) remain. That could, of course, be fixed. Secondly, none of those references were reliable secondary sources. Primary sources can be used on Wikipedia, but only with extreme care, and not as the sole basis of large amounts of content. Basing arguably promotional sections only on primary sources is particularly inappropriate. Thirdly, large amounts of content did not cite any sources whatsoever. Fourthly, the "Career" section had many inline external links. That's not appropriate by our guideline on external links, and those did not point to reliable third-party sources anyway, often not even to websites mentioning Hedge Coke at all.

I will, however, add something based on the American Literature review of Hedge Coke's work. That is the only source formerly in the "critical reception" section that's helpful; all the others were broken links, non-independent, or otherwise unhelpful.

User:Phenocia and User:LissaStoner appear to be sockpuppets and likely are Allison Hedge Coke herself. This article has served as a promotional résumé instead of an encyclopedic entry. Thank you for your clean up efforts, User:Huon. Sincerely, Yuchitown (talk) 23:31, 19 November 2016 (UTC)Yuchitown[reply]

Native identity

If you read the descriptions of the various tribal categories and the lengthy discussions throughout Wikipedia about Native American identity, living people absolutely have to be tribal members. Generally, there has to be some recognition by the tribes that the individual claims that the tribe in return acknowledges the individual as a member. Neither the Wyandotte Nation nor any Canadian First Nation has never acknowledged Coke as a member. Yuchitown (talk) 15:30, 10 November 2019 (UTC)Yuchitown[reply]
