Overall: @Longhornsg: The final two sentences in the article feel more like an editorial than a neutral encyclopedic article. If you can clean up those sentences, then we should be good to go. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 22:46, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review, @Nihonjoe:. Just removed the sentences wholesale. Longhornsg (talk) 15:29, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

SIGCOV?

Is there any significant coverage of this individual? Most of the article is cited to a single article that has only two paragraphs about him out of a total of 7 pages. The other sources give even less coverage to him. WP:SIGCOV requires multiple sources with significant coverage and we barely have one.VR _talk 01:56, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
