 * Information to be added or removed: I would like improve this article by adding the following citation: Add to Lead section: "He built the first commerical development in Carmel Valley, comprising an airport and business district."
 * Explanation of issue: Article needs WP:GNG citations.
 * References supporting change: Add the following citation: Monterey County : the dramatic story of its past. Page 202. Greg Henderson (talk) 01:50, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi Greg Henderson. I have verified that your suggestion is indeed supported by the book you cited, but as it is copied nearly word-for-word from the book, it needs to be paraphrased before I add it. Please include a properly formatted cite to the book as well. Best, Altamel (talk) 18:29, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks Altamel! Here is a revised text to add and citation: "He established the first commercial development in Carmel Valley, comprising of the Carmel Valley Airport and Carmel Valley Village."Monterey County: the dramatic story of its past. --Greg Henderson (talk) 18:44, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * You're welcome, Greg Henderson. However, two issues persist. First, the revised text structurally still resembles the original. I might just be copyright-paranoid at this point, but better to play it safe. Second, the cite needs to be to the book itself, not the WorldCat entry, so include the page number.

 * No problem. Here is the actual book and text update: "Ford established the first business expansion in Carmel Valley, including the Carmel Valley Airport and Carmel Valley Village." --Greg Henderson (talk) 19:35, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
