Aside from the almost complete reliance on self-published and primary sources, I noticed that the article never says in what field Zimov is considered to be a researcher/scientist, or whether he holds any advanced degrees. I was curious, as I read some quotes from him that were dubiously unscientific, and came to his article to get some clarification as to what qualifications he had (aside from being in charge of various projects). Regardless of that, these issues, especially the sourcing, need to be fixed. A cursory search leads me to believe that any independent reliable sources are about the Park, and there's likely little independent coverage of him personally that would satisfy the notability requirements.
