Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Emma Cavalier, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.
I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Your draft
[edit]
Hi. I returned your draft to your sandbox because it isn't ready to go "live" in Wikipedia's mainspace.
For starters, it's too short, and doesn't say enough about her achievements. What has she done to be notable enough to have a Wikipedia article? The source you use is specifically about her appointment as head of the HRC, but you don't seem to mention that in the article. It needs to be obvious to readers why this person is important.
You also need additional sourcing. While The Advocate is a reliable source, you should aim for about three independent, reliable sources. (You also shouldn't use LinkedIn, because the content there is written by the person who's profile it is, and isn't fact-checked or anything.)
In addition, you need a lead section that summarises all the major points in the article. You also shouldn't have empty sections like the "Early life" one. I've linked to the Editing Wikipedia brochure. Have a look at pages 7-9, which has a lot more information on article layout. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:36, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
