Comment: Your references do not verify that Gama passes WP:BIO. One even refuses to open. AT least one is not about Gama 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 21:03, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: "associated with witchcraft.[1][2][3] [4][5][6]" is a prime example of WP:CITEKILL. Instead we need one excellent reference per fact asserted. If you are sure it is beneficial, two, and at an absolute maximum, three. Three is not a target, it's a limit. Aim for one. A fact you assert, once verified in a reliable source, is verified. More is gilding the lily. Please choose the very best in each case of multiple referencing for a single point and either drop or repurpose the remainder.Your references should be for the facts you present, not a long list at the end 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 22:31, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
