Hyperlinks

There should not be hyperlinks in the body of the article, such as in Awards. David notMD (talk) 17:32, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Ok - I have removed all hyperlinks and replaced them with citations. --UKI2020 (talk) 17:53, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Refs

Check all your refs. You should not cite another encyclopedia, and you cannot use a pdf of a newspaper article, as that is a copyright infraction (ref #5). All that is needed is that you cite the newspaper, date and pages. The lead is a bit blah (and short). Can add that at Sylvania in 1960, he led a team that developed the first functional bar code system, for tracking railroad cars, and subsequently worked on developing laser bar code systems. David notMD (talk) 21:34, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

I can't tell you how grateful I am for your help. I've updated citations to remove the encyclopedia, put in the newspaper information instead of the PDF, and updated the top line. Thank you again. --UKI2020 (talk) 22:13, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
