::::I found quite a few discussions of Cascio's work in various books and I added a some to the article. I hope they are all independent, but feel free to remove any that aren't I believe that the article should be kept, but scrubbed of the cherry-picked quotes and cross-promotional citations to the work of his friends and colleagues.—[[User:Anne Delong|Anne Delong]] ([[User talk:Anne Delong|talk]]) 05:12, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
::::Thanks for the help, [[User:Anne Delong|Anne Delong]]. The only thing wrong I find about these is that you've used the Naughton reference twice. Is that intentional? (I can't see p.21- online, so I can't check relevance. You may need two refs, with inline citation. Guess that goes for McGonigal ref as well) About Ensia: I can't predict what a journalist would consider relevant or important. Why remove this position ref, and not others?[[User:Arfisk|Arfisk]] ([[User talk:Arfisk|talk]]) 08:07, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
::::::No, [[User:Arfisk|Arfisk]], likely two citations in the same sentence to a reference aren't needed. As the article develops, and notability becomes clear, these reference numbers would all be moved to the end of the sentence and the duplication removed. YES, exactly right, you can't predict what a journalist would consider relevant, and you don't need to; that's why we have independent citations. Also, and this is important, I and others who work on the article are not doing this to help you or Mr. Cascio; we are building a publication, in which each article has multiple editors and no "[[curator]]" is allowed to manage or oversee it. Since citations to closely connected references don't affect the AfD notability issue, let's leave that discussion for the talk page later if the article is kept.—[[User:Anne Delong|Anne Delong]] ([[User talk:Anne Delong|talk]]) 13:29, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
