- Comment: I'm a little iffy on this one. There aren't a ton of sources. One is affiliated, two are from the same publication (though different bylines, and one is quite extensive and completely about subject and his wife), the fourth is one I'm not familiar with. Perhaps the creator knows of sources in other languages? Valereee (talk) 14:49, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
