The exact change

Before

"The jump from DevNet Associate to Professional is larger than most candidates expect..." - Hank Preston, Cisco Developer Advocate [...] "NETCONF and YANG are the foundation of network programmability..." - Jason Edelman, founder of Network to Code and author of Network Programmability and Automation [...] Data from job postings on LinkedIn and Indeed, cross-referenced with compensation surveys from Network Collective and the NANOG community, represents ranges rather than guarantees.

After

The jump from DevNet Associate to Professional is larger than most candidates expect... [de-attributed] [...] NETCONF and YANG are widely considered the foundation of network programmability... [de-attributed] [...] Data from job postings on LinkedIn and Indeed, cross-referenced with general networking industry salary surveys, represents ranges rather than guarantees.

Suggested change

De-attributed 2 fabricated named-expert quotes to plain prose and softened a misattributed data-sourcing claim.

Why this is better

De-attributed two fabricated quotes falsely credited to Hank Preston and Jason Edelman with no locatable source, and softened a data-sourcing claim that misattributed compensation-survey data to Network Collective and NANOG (not generally known for publishing such surveys). Note: a second, separate fabricated quote also credited to Hank Preston later in the same article was found during review but is outside this item's described scope and was left untouched.

How this record is verified

  • The contribution is tied to a real, identified contributor, not an anonymous byline.
  • It counts only because the publisher, Pass4Sure, accepted it. Self-claimed work earns nothing.
  • It is recorded against a specific page and cannot be bought or edited after the fact.
