- Comment: Non-notable biography with no secondary sources. Having an article for creation failed can be disappointing. You might want to familiarize yourself with the
general notability guideline, especially as it applies to
people, before redrafting. Generally, Wikipedia articles require significant coverage from reliable secondary sources to be notable enough to include. Happy to chat if you have any questions.
