The WP:BLP message box about "[contentious material that is] unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately" has been up for five years, and the information in the article has been unsourced for longer. User:NatGertler, as you are familiar with the subject of the article, please source as much of the information as you can; your WP:COI has been noted but if you provide reliable sources then your edits shouldn't be a problem.

I am uncertain which portions you feel rise to the level of "contentious"; the only things I see there that hit me as qualifying as that are "which has been considered a major factor in the origins of furry fandom." and the claim that Albedo 2 is very rare.

Tomorrow, I will try to offer some sourcing suggestions here on the talk page; as one of the sources is likely to be a book that I published, I would prefer that someone else verify them to whatever degree possible and integrate them into the article. (I have COIs with enough articles that I feel the need to tread lightly.) However, I do not have access to all the sources that I can show exist (such as Amazing Heroes 129.) --Nat Gertler (talk) 02:15, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the source listed here, I'm going to recommend changing the opening to:

Steven A. Gallacci (born 1955) is best known for creating the image that was the genesis of furry fandom, and for creating and publishing Albedo Anthropomorphics, a black and white alternative comic containing anthropomorphic funny animal characters.^[1]

• Following the statement that he was in the air force, the ref should go to http://www.stevegallacci.com/
• Following Lela Dowling co-authored the artwork and Steve Barnes drafted the first issues, add ^[2], then at the end of the sentence, add ^[3][4]
• The sentence "He also created "Birthright", an indirect sequel to Erma Felna, serialized in the Fantagraphics title "Critters". should be ^[5]
• The opening of the sentence "He occasionally produces silver bullets for his Argent Small Arms line of replica firearms" should be changed to "He has occasionally produced" and the sentence should be referenced to http://www.stevegallacci.com/
• An External links should be added with Official website.
• A Further reading section should be added with: Amazing Heroes issue 129, November 15, 1987: Interview with Gallacci.

This is all I have energy for tonight, and am not sure when (or if) I might get back to it. --Nat Gertler (talk) 04:33, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
