- Comment: The article needs multiple independent secondary sources with in depth coverage. Recycled press releases and extended quotes from insiders are not what we need. Stuartyeates (talk) 09:03, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Currently, this article is not supported by reliable secondary references. Most of the sourcing comes from press releases, when it is desired to have articles rely on independent sources to demonstrate the subject's notability. Utopes (talk / cont) 17:59, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
