Removed a claim

edit

I've removed the sentence "During Amanat’s tenure, Marvel has developed a female version of Thor, an Afro-Latino Spider-Man, and a Korean-American Hulk." as it was taken verbatim from this primary source. It's also a bit problematic since it implies heavily that Amanat is the sole or primary reason these characters exist. Copyvio issues aside, this is something that should be explained more and backed up with something that isn't primary. I have no doubt that her work with Ms. Marvel was very influential as a whole with Marvel, but this is something that needs sourcing or it will be considered original research and too vague to include. The problem with a primary source is that since Amanat went to Barnard, they're going to speak more favorably about her than an unaffiliated source may do otherwise and as such, any claims or statements should be backed up with an independent, reliable source. I would have just marked this with an expand or explain template, however since it was directly taken I just removed it. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:49, 26 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
