Draft:Kalin Stefanov (backgammon player)

  • Comment: You haven't changed anything since the last decline. Resubmitting without changes might eventually lead to Rejection, where you won't be able to submit it again. C F A 💬 23:08, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

I add a reply comment: The last decline was clearly a mistake as double grazing had approved 2 of thw sources last month HIMSELF, and additionally, a main Stuttgart media/newspaper is CLEARLY independent, unless you somehow think I own it or something. This is why it was resubmitted awaiting proper review, but instead the commentor decided to just decline it without reviewing it. This is why it will be resubmited again, and unless someone properly reviews the article without being biased against approving it, the case will be taken to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. Best regards and goodbye.

  • Comment: Of the six sources cited, #1 is clearly not independent; #2, 5 and 6 are mainly tournament reporting, with limited coverage of the draft subject (esp. #6 barely at all); #3 and 4 are primary, and also do not provide any meaningful coverage of the subject. This still does not add up to notability per WP:GNG. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:52, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: YouTube and Blogspot are not reliable sources and will need replacing. Theroadislong (talk) 15:47, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
