Hello! Inongimke, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering or curious about why your article submission was declined please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there!

I made some changes to the article, focusing on tone and on emphasizing in the intro the things that imply notability. It probably needs more work, but I'm done for tonight. See what you think.

Wikipedia's "house style" is fairly dry and formal, and must always take a neutral point of view. This writing style takes some getting used to.

In your message you mentioned issues with sources not being online. This is not at all a requirement; references to print sources are encouraged. Templates such as {{cite book}} and {{cite magazine}} can help with formatting. If the source is originally in print, but an online copy is available, you format the entry as a print source but add a "url=" field. The result is similar to the {{cite web}} template, but with some slight differences relating to the fact that the print source is the original. This may help with the issue you mentioned, with referencing print sources for which the only online copy you have found is posted on the subject of the article's web site.

I haven't read all of the sources and evaluated whether they are enough to establish notability yet. One of the issues raised at the help desk relates to the amount of coverage of him. What they are getting at is summarized here. To establish notability, there needs to be several good, reliable, independent sources that directly discuss the subject of the article.--Srleffler (talk) 06:35, 29 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
