 * Thank you for your input and comments. I must admit I am having some difficulty coming to terms with them given the status of the subject in the world of photojournalism. If you can point me to some examples of biographies on wikipedia that may be used as suitable exemplars of what you expect to read, I will rewrite. DJB of Melb (talk) 09:16, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the feedback. I have added further academeic citations to the article. I am at a loss as to the reference to encyclopedic style given the paucity of the at style in so many articles on Wikipedia I use for research. If any editor could point me to one article of  the correct style I would be happy to  attempt to bring my 50 years of journalistic and media writing skills up to the level that appears to be required. Just one suitable link is all I ask for.  DJB of Melb (talk) 07:44, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Good afternoon,
 * I have heavily writeen the article and added a number of citations and references to Michaels publications. I await your response please.  DJB of Melb (talk) 06:56, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Thanks.
 * I had completely refreshed the citations, ensuring all were able to be verified on line. I have rewritten the text.
 * The man has had a number of books published.
 * His World of Australians was launched by an Australian Government Minister and I quoted that and included a link to the speech in the citations.
 * His works are held in major collections,
 * He has been awarded an Australian Centenary medal for his documentary work.
 * I have no idea what else I am meant to do, and not of of the people reviewing the submission appears prepared to engage with me. DJB of Melb (talk) 06:51, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
