MER-C Hi, I'm probably the only rodeo editor who knows much about this subject who has time, so I took a quick look. There's definitely close paraphrasing in it. There's also probably too much use of non-free content. It should definitely be rewritten at the least. I can try to rewrite it, but will probably be a stub at first, which I will add to as time goes on. The bulk of the article is mostly taken from source #2. Kristen Tribe: The Voice of Rodeo. The SS Death Index is a dead link. I added the Honors section personally, so that is clean. Anyway, that's my two cents. dawnleelynn^(talk) 19:20, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
