I came to this article looking for a
WP:RS for Maynard's date of birth to support another editor's addition of that information to another page. Not finding one, I added a {{
cn}}
tag to the assertion of her date of birth in the lede of this article - the only place it was asserted. Subsequently, the {{
cn}}
tag was removed but no source provided. Ok, I get that you might not want that cluttering up the article but removing the tag and leaving the unsupported material is bad form. I've removed the asserted DOB.

Pigsonthewing has installed a {{ In use}} template at the top of this article since its creation a few days ago. From the template documentation:
"The tag is intended to inform people that someone is currently working on the article, thereby reducing edit conflicts. Please do not leave it in place for more than the few hours at most that should be necessary, as doing so may unnecessarily discourage others from contributing to the article. If it has been up for more than two hours since the last edit, it should be removed."
Accordingly, I have removed it. If it is re-asserted, please don't forget to remove it when you knock off. Toddst1 ( talk) 23:35, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
