referencing Biography section edit

The biography section currently has a list of eight references at the end of almost a dozen sentences. Were the entire content of this section actually found in each and every reference, it would be overkill - why use eight references when one or two sufficiently verify the information. Looking at the reference, though, that is not the case, with some references only documenting a small proportion of the claims made in the paragraph, while each claim is likewise only confirmed by a subset of those references. The correct citation approach, then, would be to reference each fact (or at least each sentence) individually with the relevant citations, rather than forcing the reader to dig through eight different references to find the relevant information.
