Comment: Far too much unreferenced content, and citing primary sources is not helping to establish notability. DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:01, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: I started going through the sources, and the first four didn't even mention Iglitzin, so I left it at that. When citing a source, you must make sure it actually supports the statement against which it is cited, otherwise it serves no purpose. So for example when making the statement
"Iglitzin received her Bachelor of Music at Indiana University, studying with Josef Gingold"
, it is pointless to cite a source that simply talks about Gingold; we have no doubt that he existed. Instead, we need a source that verifies the stated facts, ie. a) that Iglitzin received a degree from Indiana U., and b) she studied with Gingold.There is also far too much information here that isn't supported (or even quasi-supported) by any references. This is unacceptable in an article on a living person (WP:BLP). DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:18, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
