Submission declined on 2 February 2024 by Netherzone (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.

- Comment: WP:NARTIST and WP:NACADEMIC are not met at this time. The draft needs fully independent, secondary reliable sources to support general notability. It appears to be an autobiography. Netherzone (talk) 20:57, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
