| Submission declined on 22 July 2024 by DoubleGrazing (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.

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)
