Where to get help
If you need help editing or submitting your draft, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. These venues are only for help with editing and the submission process, not to get reviews.
If you need feedback on your draft, or if the review is taking a lot of time, you can try asking for help on the talk page of a relevant WikiProject. Some WikiProjects are more active than others so a speedy reply is not guaranteed.
To improve your odds of a faster review, tag your draft with relevant WikiProject tags using the button below. This will let reviewers know a new draft has been submitted in their area of interest. For instance, if you wrote about a female astronomer, you would want to add the Biography, Astronomy, and Women scientists tags.
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.
Comment: Removed unverifiable statements. Restored personal section about junior tennis national champion having represented his country in international tournaments. Reviewers may consider that this mainspace BLP Wikipedia article was archived in April 2014 with multiple snapshots until it was deleted after discussion in February 2022. The subject passed WP:N during previous deletion discssions but during the deletion discussion in 2022, editors mistakenly chose (in my view) to delete rather than revert. I quote from WP:BLP "When in doubt about whether material in a BLP is appropriate, the article should be pared back to a policy-compliant version." I am unsure whether there was an appeal to reinstate post deletion or about any decision post arbitration. Multiple WP:RS about patent and FT IFC award since that deletion have been added in this draft Kintomechanic (talk) 08:13, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
Comment: This article contained massive peacock, plus many statements which the sources provided did not verify. I have removed some, more checking is needed. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:39, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Over-referenced, and the Lead is far too long. The Lead should be a brief summary. Much of the content should be moved to the body of the article, or if already there, reduce duplication of content while retaining the important refs. David notMD (talk) 23:18, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
Comment: Close but not quite enough independent significant coverage WikiOriginal-9 (talk) 06:49, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
