Delete these instructions when you have filled in the journalist's infobox:
Do you see the box in the upper right with the name of your journalist and his or her country? That is the infobox. When you edit source in Wikipedia, you will enter data after the equal sign and once you do that and choose preview or save, you will see the new information displayed. You don't need to reference information in the infobox.
Delete these instructions when you have finished with the lead:
The lead is the first text that appears after the infobox and it gives a general overview of the person and tells why this person was important.
Delete these instructions after filling in personal details about the journalist. What do you know about this person's life outside of career and death? In most cases, you don't need a great amount of detail. You might know where the person was born or where the person lives and about his or her family. You might have learned about their education. What did the person do before he or she became a journalist. Sometimes you know where and when the memorial service was held and where the person is buried. Don't go into any details about how the person died here.
Delete these instructions when you have completed the section about the person's career: Provide any career details and dates. Give background and any examples of important work. Don't go into any death details here.
Delete these instructions after completion: What should the reader know about the country or the situation (e.g., dangerous assignment, embedded journalist, impunity) to better understand what has happened to this journalist and how it relates to journalism in this country or in the world? Citations to the CIA's The World Factbook are common in this section.
Delete these instructions after completion: Why is this person important? In the lead, you suggested why this person is important, but now you want to give a more complete explanation. It is important to back this up with sources that are not world press freedom organizations, like the CPJ or RSF.
Delete these instructions after completion: List all of the awards won, the year, and a citation for each. These are also listed briefly in the infobox.
Dozen good sources

New York_Institute of Technology alumni (year graduated, family): https://www.nyit.edu/files/magazine/NYITMagazine_V11N02_Summer2013.pdf
VMCZ must be cited:
Too short but may have a fact you can reference:
Not an acceptable source, but you can use the information here like education to search for her by name and by this fact to see if you can bring up a more reputable, verifiable source.:
This is just a photo and not very useful:
