Submission declined on 3 February 2024 by Paul W ( 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. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.

Submission declined on 2 February 2024 by Star Mississippi ( talk). The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject. Declined by Star Mississippi 4 months ago.

• Comment: Needs additional citations - key assertions are unsupported by reliable sources which should be more than routine or passing mentions. A BLP needs citations of significant coverage in independent, secondary sources. Paul W ( talk) 21:36, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: see WP:REFB for help with correctly formatting sources. Theroadislong ( talk) 10:53, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: Probably notable, but needs cleanup before this is accepted, especially with respect to BLP sourcing. Where is this copied from? Star Mississippi 14:42, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
