I didn't feel like having a huge fight about it, especially with the nom pending; the last thing you'd want is for the article to be under page protection. And I thought maybe this guy could be encouraged to become a good-faith contributor (in retrospect I was wrong; this is all he seemed to have been interested in). So I let it go for a while. 691: 610: 292:"Newspapers, namely The New York Times and New York Post published the news often with a quote from Chief Seedman and he was a frequent on the evening news" Comma after New York Post.

Presumably you mean "he was frequently on the evening news" 42: 1124: 1086: 878: 681: 568: 529: 470: 418: 337: 302: 267: 232: 197: 221:

Why is there a cite after "rising through the ranks" in the middle of the sentence? Cites should come after punctuation. I can't find mention of him being promoted to detective (rather than chief of detectives) in either source 3 or
