Worldcat refs
Please use Google Books instead of citations to Worldcat. I have formatted footnote 10 for you. Thank you, Yoninah (talk) 22:56, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

Personal life
I cannot find anywhere that says Nyasha Junior and Jeremy Schipper are partners. They have wrtiten a book together but this implies a relationship? Does anyone have a link to an interview or something that shows this? I also don't know if it's necessary on a page about her academic career. Thanks!

 * Hey so a) the reference is next to the statement on the page (Footnote 15) and it is to Schipper's 2009 book - it's a good point though, so I changed it to reflect the 2009 date & b) it's quite usual for there to be detail about people's personal lives on their pages, if it's referenced and relevant. I included it since they've co-authored books together, it appeared to be a relevant detail to her professional and personal life. Wikipedia runs on consensus though, so make the changes you think make an optimal encyclopaedic entry! Lajmmoore (talk) 16:43, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

I think the reference to Schipper fits better within the section about her academic career. Schipper and Junior are both colleagues at Temple University and co-authored a book together, but placing the reference under personal life and calling him "her partner" makes it seem like the two are in a relationship, which is not true. I have moved it and changed the wording a bit just so there is no confusion.Al.barbee296 (talk) 17:03, 11 November 2020 (UTC)Al.barbee296 --They most certainly are married and have been for over a decade--unless they have recently gotten a divorce, which I highly doubt.


 * Hey It's always good to sign your comments! with the 4 x ~ ! Great change too! Lajmmoore (talk) 17:02, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Early Life and Education Source ?
Hello! I found an article where Nyasha Junior says which church she went to as a child and wanted to add that to the "Early Life" section but I wasn't sure if this was okay since the article is self published. I looked at Wikipedia's self-publishing guidelines but I wanted to be sure before I wrote it. Here is the link: and it is also linked under her publications section where I included the article as one of her publications. Thanks! Al.barbee296 (talk) 13:48, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
