• Comment: Thank you for fixing the citation error. However, this draft in its current state does not establish notability. Please read WP:SIGCOV carefully. The Newspaper archive is a advertisement so it is not independent. (keyword: "paid for")
    Please find sources that give detailed biography of this politician. I will not be reviewing this draft any longer since it is good to get perspective from other reviewers as well. Ca talk to me! 16:18, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: The issue is that the current sources lack details about Mr. Kiramis. Most simply announce his mayoral status and nothing else. Many are just passing mentions. Also, California Digital Newspaper Collection seems leads me to the search page, not the newspaper itself.
    Also I don't know what this part is trying to communicate. I suggest editing this part to be coherent. "Bay Area viewed as a part of Silicon Valley. Kiramis and Rick Wykoff were the council members who were adamant that the Solarbees should be removed as soon as possible." Ca talk to me! 10:57, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: The Antelope Valley Times does not seem to be a reliable source; there is no mention of fact-checking or editorial team. Also, some of ht einline citations are confusing. For example "Kiramis ran for city council[1] in Foster City, where he was later elected mayor. He then became a candidate for Lancaster[4] city council[1]. " It is unclear what the citations are supporting here. Ca talk to me! 13:53, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
