Article is new and long enough. No apparent issues with neutrality or copyvio. Hook fact is cited inline and interesting enough. QPQ is done. You need to add some categories, especially Category:Living people assuming he is still alive. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:50, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Muboshgu Thanks for the review. I added Living People to the categories. I'm not sure what else to add and finding what categories to use has never been much of a skill of mine. SL93 (talk) 22:56, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I added more. SL93 (talk) 23:05, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Image Copywrite permissions[edit]

I have access to images provided personally by John Giordano as he would like to see his page updated with his full bio info. Is there a process to confirm that I have permission to use these images? Thanks in advance for any help. Tbbhometown1 (talk) 20:36, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
