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.

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: Wikipedia subjects need in-depth coverage (full-length articles, not just passing mentions) in usually at least 3 reliable sources that are not written by or affiliated with the subject. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 17:26, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Comment: Imdb is not a reliable source, so, please remove imdb link. ~~ αvírαm|(tαlk) 11:30, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Comment: Fails WP:ANYBIO - Wikipedia doesn't support the posting of personal autobiographies - Noting the article's creator is the son of David Henry - undeclared WP:COI. Also the cited references don't even mention Henry, except for theatricalia.com (which is user generated without any independent editorial oversight. Dan arndt (talk) 05:58, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
