@Bbarmadillo: Thank you to whoever can help me with improving this article. I will continue to add material (regarding stub status), but I have a question about the request to use secondary sources rather than primary. For example, Prof. Maine serves on the board of directors for a company. Is the request that I link to a source other than that company's website where they name her as a board member? For example, instead of linking to Foresight Cleantech Accelerator, I should link to this secondary source that notes she is on the Foresight board? https://www.globeseries.com/forum2018/speakers/maine-elicia/ In looking at other articles, like Kara Swisher, I see news articles used. Obviously, I'm new to creating an article (participating in WEKH Wiki-Edit: Adding Women to the Story) and to participating via talk pages. Thank you for your patience.

Yes, this is the right approach. Please also use only independent reliable sources per WP:RSP. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 14:34, 8 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Bbarmadillo: Thank you - I've gone back through and found secondary sources. My understanding is that it's better if I don't remove the tag until others signal here that the issue is resolved. Could you take a look? Scholar1961 (talk) 22:48, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
As the main author of the article, and probaly the one with the WP:COI, you should absolutely NOT be removing the tag yourself. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 10:24, 13 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
