Draft:Jack Perry (entrepreneur)

  • Comment: The draft still uses industry marketing and buzz-speak that is not neutral. (..."whose products and services power live streaming solutions for television broadcasters, including Paramount+ (formerly CBS All Access), Hulu, fuboTV and more."
    If you are stating that he created a subscriber authentication service that is used by every local television station in the US, you need a source. (I couldn't find anything.)
    I am sure he is accomplished, but to establish notability on Wikipedia extensive coverage specifically about Jack Perry via reliable, independent sources is required.

  • Comment: Article still seems a bit promotional in nature. The sources in the article are either passing mentions or do not mention the subject at all.
    You need to add reliable sources, also the sources have to be independent of the subject. Jamiebuba (talk) 18:24, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
