| Submission declined on 10 October 2024 by Dan arndt (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. 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. Declined by Dan arndt 5 hours ago. | |
Comment: You cannot cite Wikipedia as a source on Wikipedia.This draft only cites primary sources. Some citations do not actually support anything in this draft.Very promotional throughout. Your job is to describe the subject, not praise him. DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:32, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Fails WP:ANYBIO - Wikiepdia is not an acceptable or reliable source, and the GUST website is a primary source (which is not independent). Dan arndt (talk) 06:55, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
