| Submission declined on 22 May 2024 by Gene93k (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources.

Comment: See my previous comments. If these issues are not rectified before resubmitting, next time I will reject this outright. DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:09, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: You must cite your sources using inline citations, correctly formatted. They are currently just a collection of external links.Also, remove all the inline external links from the body text. There should be no links pointing to external sources until those in the 'References' section (with the exception of one optional link in the infobox). DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:26, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Promotional tone issues only partially addressed (see WP:PEACOCK). Previously mentioned external link issues not addressed. The overwhelming majority of references are articles by the subject, not articles by independent secondary sources about the subject. Finally, references should be inline citations at the content they meant to support. • Gene93k (talk) 06:26, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: The references have been added improperly. See WP:CITE. Please remove the inline links to external websites, per WP:EL. Lastly, the tone of this draft is decidedly not neutral and would never be accepted in its current form on tone alone. We write in a neutral, encyclopedic tone here, not in a gushing positive way. Please revise. --Hammersoft (talk) 02:08, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
