Hi Carolina2k22,

Thanks heaps for your feedback. I'm new to this obviously. I am a little confused. I do have an academic background so I understand the necessity of citation reliability and verifiability. I didn't expect to encounter any issues with the citations I used. Are you able to give me any more specific direction? Which sources exactly were not reliable? Is this a situation where some of the article (wherever a bad citation is used) could be cut and the remainder of the article (where citations are appropriate) can be kept. It would be great to get more feedback.

Best wishes,
