@AFreshStart: 4th DYK, no QPQ needed. Article is long enough and the sourcing is a bit bare, but just about passes WP:NBIO - could definitely go with 1-2 other sources if you can find them though. Hook fact is cited, and interesting, but I have serious concerns about plagiarism. The hook (and several other sentences in the article) seems copy-pasted from the Dictionary of African Biography source. I cannot accept the hook until the entire article has been fixed to not violate copyright. Juxlos (talk) 09:52, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
- I have found a few other sources (e.g. [1], [2]) which I or another editor can add after the copyright issue is resolved (my apologies). —AFreshStart (talk) 12:05, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Juxlos: I believe the copyright issue in the article has been resolved. I have tried to have my temporary rewrite looked over for possible copyvios, but no luck. Hopefully I haven't undone any work here, but I have edited and re-added the information with some other sources too, and changed the hook. Any feedback is much appreciated. —🎄☃️❄️ Season's greetings from AFreshStart (talk) ❄️☃️🎄 23:24, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
