As a BLP this article has a tag that it is lacking inline citations, using the "External links" as sourcing. By Wikipedia standards, this means the article is unsourced not under-sourced. Added "BLP unsourced" and "notability" tags since 2014 tags have not resulted in improvements.
Move trimmed "External links" here for possible use as future sources.
