Thank you for understanding what "citing your sources" means, and why it's useful.
We cite sources for facts, not for opinions. This is just name-dropping. What is YOUR opinion? Do you agree with Nick's argument, or are you presenting it for attention?

My opinion is that you should maybe learn something about how science, research, and journalism work. Citation serves many functions, but principally to provide a reader sufficient context to interpret and evaluate claims.
reply
Opinions aren't claims.
