Submission declined on 21 August 2024 by Jamiebuba (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. Declined by Jamiebuba 8 days ago. | ![]() |

Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established.

Comment: Read through all the above linked information about Neutral point of view. Again, this needs to be rewritten. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not her resume and not the platform to praise her. Also, much of this is unsourced or the source used makes no mention of her so fails verification. If resubmitted without substantial improvements, the draft may be rejected meaning it will no longer be considered. S0091 (talk) 19:19, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Please read through all the linked information. Profiles cannot be used to establish notability and this needs be completely rewritten to meet Wikipedia's WP:NPOV policy. S0091 (talk) 20:10, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
