The first citations only start to appear in Early Life. Some of this may stretch into common knowledge but a lot is about more recent events and their current status. Floydtron (talk) 12:46, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Generally, lead sections don't have citations as they are a summation of the body of the article, and the citations should be found there. We usually only see citations in the lead if there have been disagreements with the content. Early Life is the first section of the body of the article so it makes sense that it is the first section with a citation. --Kyohyi (talk) 13:28, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
