Noted comments by User:Timtrent on the section Reception. Could see removing it and archiving the references researched and added there under External Links. How does that sound? Anoushnajarian (talk) 15:30, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

@Anoushnajarian: I do not believe havimg those as external links will add value to the draft. I believe they detract from it. Instead, why not look at the facts they contain and add those facts, where absent, with the reference as a citation.

Be aware that any that are interviews with BS are considered to be Primary Sources, and shoudl be avoided.

Your sole objective is to create a draft that we can accept. AFC reviewers have an objective, which is to accept a draft with better than 60% of surviving an immediate deletion process. We want to accept drafts. It saddens us when editors strive for perfection instead of acceptability. We want it out there, not being reviewed for ever

Once accepted, the article is subject to editing by all and scrutiny by all, whcih is far better than being reviewed at AFC. We are just a filter to help editors succeed. Fiddle Faddle 16:35, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

This is not, obviously, a draft any more, but the same thinking applies Fiddle Faddle 16:38, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you so much for the advice, feedback -- and your patience, User:Timtrent! Removed the section "Reception" flagged during review by User:Timtrent, and removed the Cleanup tag as removal of section "Reception" addresses the flag. Anoushnajarian (talk) 17:02, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
