  • Comment: The sources are still not good and, this draft will not be passed in its current state. Sultana.com is by no means a reliable source, yet it's used in three references (refs 3, 4, & 7). Ref 6, 8 & 9 are ALSO written by Sultana, and therefore not secondary or reliable coverage. Ref 1 is not independent as a staff info-page, and that's about all I personally looked at.
    Notability on Wikipedia is determined by what is significantly covered by independent, reliable sources, per the general notability guidelines. Such sources do not exist here at this time. Utopes (talk / cont) 12:28, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
