| Submission declined on 7 July 2024 by SafariScribe (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 films). 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.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format.

Comment: Most of the sources are interview or promotion (creators statements and quotation), which doesn't meet WP:NFILM. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 15:42, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Resubmitting without improvement is disruptive. The Guardian article might have enough independent content to pass but the other two are interviews/what Cumming's says which are primary sources and not independent so cannot be used to establish notability.

- Comment:
I have reformatted your references correctly(Update: since reverted by author) so that they may be placed inline around supporting material. Note that each of these are not independent and therefore do not establish notability. So for future references, follow the instructions at WP:REFB so that they will be formatted similarly. Further, the article must be written in descriptive encyclopedic prose and not promotional in nature. microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 14:39, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
