Reliable sources and lede

Hi! I just wanted to drop you a note that I reverted this edit. Two notes: the source given is not reliable as it is essentially a personal blog. Second, although it can, the lede does not need to contain any sources as it summarizes the entire article. If the items you added are in the article, the they are fine, but I assumed here that you were paraphrasing from the blog source. Also, have a look at WP:OR, where the difference between encyclopedic content and original research is discussed. Hope this helps.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 23:58, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
