Richard Bruce Paris moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Richard Bruce Paris, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

 * Hi, you had moved this out of your sandbox with the comment 'Preferred location for AfC submissions'; however, you moved it into the main article space, which I assume was a mistake? I have therefore moved it into the drafts, which is the actual preferred location. HTH, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:20, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Dear @DoubleGrazing, I do not comprehend your criticism on the references of this article. Please let's first talk about this comment of yours:
 * "The referencing is inadequate. Excluding the two sources authored by the subject himself, only one other source is cited, and only twice, leaving the majority of the content unsupported."
 * The source page https://prabook.com/web/richard_bruce.paris/302726 is actually legit and was not authored by the subject itself. Why do you think so and why did you remove it?
 * Thank you. Residuensatz (talk) 18:38, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I did not remove it. It was removed by (see here). In fact, I didn't even see it. That said, had I seen it, I also might have removed it as non-reliable. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:57, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * "Prabook" is a scraper site - they grab content from other sources without attribution, including Wikipedia. Making things worse, it's user-editable; material can be added or changed at any time without any oversight. As DG notes, it is not a reliable source, especially not for biographical data. The site has been discussed many times.Sam Kuru (talk) 19:22, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I see the problem and, honesty speaking, the site does in fact not look very reliable. Just notice the kind of advertising, lol. If I would not know it from a family member of the subject, I would not have taken it for real. However, the problem is that there are apparently no other sources. So I guess, I must reorganize the entire article.
 * As far as I see, the second problem concerns the death of the subject. I know the date from a private source and I know that this is insufficient. But the year, according to
 * https://dlmf.nist.gov/about/bio/RBParis,
 * is legit, isn't it? Residuensatz (talk) 19:43, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear @DoubleGrazing please notice that I've just revised the article. Sincerely. Residuensatz (talk) 21:49, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
