The sentence "A 2023 study of the lives of war criminals from the 1990s Balkan conflicts who had been released having served their sentences located Kvočka." has no main verb in it. My impression is thet it is intended to describe the source for the information in either the previous sentence or the subsequent one. If that is the case, it should be combined with the relevant sentence using a phrase like "according to". Pauldebarros (talk) 16:21, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think the sentence is grammatically correct, although it may be a bit overwhelming structurally. The main verb is 'located'.

WP:BLPPRIMARY states: Do not use trial transcripts and other court records, or other public documents, to support assertions about a living person. Do not use public records that include personal details, such as date of birth, home value, traffic citations, vehicle registrations, and home or business addresses.

28/35 references in this article are to the trial itself. Traumnovelle (talk) 22:25, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I am aware of that now, see my comment at BLP noticeboard. I will obviously rectify, there are plenty of secondary sources for almost everything in the article. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 05:04, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
