thread_title:  External links modified 

message: * Please be aware of MOS:SANDWICH.  This article has too many images, and text should not be sandwiched between images.  I suggest creating a category at Commons and adding a commons link to the images, so excess can be removed. See for example Ruth_Bader_Ginsburg#External_links for commons links.
* "Best known for" is rarely citeable.  When I removed it, and it was re-added, I put a cn tag on it.  Now the wording has been corrected, and yet we have six unnecessary citations in the lead.  See WP:LEADCITE and WP:CITEOVERKILL.  Please remove citations from the lead and work them in to the body.
* The article is overquoted. See WP:OVERQUOTE, and try to rephrase more in our own words or reduce lengthy quotes.
* I removed an external jump; WP:EL belong only in EL and in citations, and his partner has his own article.
* Citations are repeated rather than using named refs when repeating the same ref, eg, Grove Music is listed twice, when a named ref could be used.  (Not that the Grove music citations should be in the lead anyway ... that Picker is "noted for" those works does not need citing at all in the lead ... it belongs in the body ... the problem was the trite wording "Best known for" which is almost never citeable).

replies: text: File:Parkave23.jpg was an unambiguous copyright violation and I've deleted it as such.  The remaining (non-free) images all fail multiple NFC criteria; the failure to meet NFCC#1, especially, would not be likely to be resolved, as Picker is still living. Images are also not low-resolution (NFCC#3B), provide no understanding of the article topic (NFCC#8), and have inadequate description pages/rationales (NFCC#10).  They're a mess, and appear to have been added as decoration with no genuine consultation or consideration of WP:NFCC. Эlcobbola talk 16:14, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

text: Sandy, I see Elcobbola has handled this. I'm afraid I'm not at all familiar or experienced with Wikipedia's NFCC rules, as it isn't something that Commons concerns itself with. -- Colin°Talk 20:15, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
