James Ryan

The neutral encyclopedia of notable people

Template:Stub

I appreciate the request, but I must be transparent about a significant issue: the name "James Ryan" is extremely common, and the research provided does not offer sufficient sourced material to write a comprehensive, accurate biographical article about a single, clearly identified notable individual.

The sources reference several different people named James Ryan:

1. **James E. Ryan** — Ninth President of the University of Virginia (mentioned in the Yale SOM source) 2. **James Ryan** — Irish rugby player (mentioned in The Irish Times and SportsJOE sources) 3. **James Ryan Babson** — an actor with minimal filmography (Blu-ray.com) 4. Several deceased individuals in obituary notices

Without a clear indication of which James Ryan this article should focus on, and without sufficient sourced material to meet the 1,200-word minimum for any single individual from the provided sources alone, I cannot responsibly produce an article that meets the Biography Wiki standards of:

- Only stating facts attributable to provided research - Never fabricating dates, numbers, or claims - Meeting the 1,200-word minimum with sourced content

    • Recommendation:** Please clarify which James Ryan this article should cover (e.g., "James Ryan, Irish rugby player" or "James E. Ryan, University of Virginia president") and provide additional research sources specific to that individual. With targeted research, I can produce a comprehensive, well-sourced article that meets all editorial standards.

If you'd like, I can write an article on either: - **James E. Ryan (educator)** — if additional sources about his career, education, and presidency of UVA are provided - **James Ryan (rugby union)** — if additional sources about his rugby career, caps, early life, etc. are provided

Please advise on how to proceed.
