Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 20:18, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • In the infobox: "US" → "U.S."
  • Birthdate needs a source (either in infobox or lead).
  • Lead summarizes the article so that's in good shape.

Early life and career

[edit]
  • Remove the commas after "study electronics" and "2016 presidential election".
  • Everything is sourced so I couldn't find any other issues in this section.

Storming of the Capitol

[edit]
I guess we should. Thanks for the link!

Homicide investigation

[edit]
  • Link CNN.
  • CNN actually says that it was "the DC Metropolitan Police Department's homicide branch".
  • Move the reference after "murder" to the end of the sentence it is in.

Memorials and funeral

[edit]
  • This section looks good (no issues).

References and other comments

[edit]
  • Mark references from The New York Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from The Washington Post with "|url-access=limited".
  • CBS New YorkWCBS-TV
  • New York TimesThe New York Times
  • Washington PostThe Washington Post
  • Try to be consistent whether or not to italicize certain sources such as CNN.
  • Sources are all already archived.
  • Optional, but try linking websites in each reference.
For example, if a reference is from The New York Times, link it with "|website=[[The New York Times]]".

@Some Dude From North Carolina: Thanks for your suggestions! I think I've addressed most of them, and left comments for two items that I had questions about. Let me know if I missed anything on your list, or if there are other suggestions that you have! Edge3 (talk) 03:48, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
