• Comment: I deleted most of those refs. The Infobox lists six education programs, but the referenced text now lists only two. Make cuts in the Infobox and add text and a ref that confirms his PhD. David notMD (talk) 12:30, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: The WP:REFBOMBING in the 'Early Life and Education' section is just silly. You need one reliable source to support the DOB, one (same or different) to support the education. There is simply no need for 14 (!) citations here; please get rid of 10+ of them. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:34, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: There is an existing article with the same title as this draft, which is about a different person or different work with the same name. If this draft is accepted, the existing primary page should be renamed with a disambiguator, and this draft should be made primary. The hatnote at the top of this draft indicates what the new title of the current primary should be.
    The current primary page is Raycho Raychev. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:27, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
