Comment: For a Wikipedia article to be published, it must be notable. Something is notable if it has significant coverage in several independent, reliable sources. Coverage of a topic is significant if the topic is covered in depth in the article; passing mentions and routine news stories are generally not significant. A source is independent if it is not a person or organization associated with the article subject.Almost all of the sources cited are not independent, and the ones that are independent do not cover the subject with sufficient depth for the coverage to be significant. voorts (talk/contributions) 13:03, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: This is a WP:BLP article, so all statements and claims should be backed up with inline citations to reliable sources. Referencing for BLPs is always much stricter than for other articles. There are currently several unreferenced paragraphs in the article. Inline citations to reliable sources should be added and unverifiable information should be removed.
