2b.
reliable sources are
cited inline. All content that
could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
"In her early to mid-teen years, she labored as a fruit packer and a maid, giving most of her income to her father, who she later described as abusive." - A lot of clauses. Could you split this?
I'm a bit concerned about the heavy reliance (overwhelming majority of footnotes) on Tumminia as a reference. It seems that a broader-based reference set would be preferable.--

In the introductory paragraph it is stated that Norman was a native of California, but in the "Early Life and Marriage" paragraph it states that she was born in Indiana. This seems contradictory. ;

The sentence "Kirkpatrick and Tumminia state that the Urantian canon appears to be impenetrable..." had the following astute comment: <Urantian or Unarian? Urantian is a different kettle of fish>. As
Urantia is a new religious movement as well, the source might conceivably have mentioned it (in which case the sentence would be irrelevant), but a quick check shows Unarius was meant after all.

Yeah, thanks for doing that. I screwed that up, I have written about the Urantian canon in the past as well, so I really should have caught that!

I concur +1 for the reversal of the Prophecy and Therapy section large removal
Hi, +1 I agree with the person that undid (undo'ed) the large edit where an anonymous person removed a large paragraph about Norman betting $1000 that the Earth would be visited by aliens within a certain year. There were good cite/ref's. Glad that
this edit occurred and undid the large removal! I was going to copy paste the removed text to the Talk page at least for posterity.. --Peter aka

"The couple discussed numerous details about their past lives"
I am very uncomfortable with the following being stated in wikivoice: "The couple discussed numerous details about their past lives.... The existence of past lives is a fringe belief and I think something like "alleged past lives" is more appropriate. Courtesy ping
