David Day section[edit]

I removed an edit that was inadequately sourced. It appears to quote meeting minutes which, even if published and verifiable, don't indicate the incident was of any encyclopedic significance to the conference. Unless independent sources have given any coverage of it, it does not seem to be WP:DUE (and I couldn't find any, just fan sites). Schazjmd (talk) 21:09, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
