  • Comment: Unfortunately, this draft fails WP:GNG, and I can find no sources that suggest it will ever pass GNG. Looking at the two sources currently present:
    1) they are insufficient to demonstrate significant coverage.
    2) the second is not in-depth; it is a passing mention only.
    3) the first reference is borderline for whether it is in-depth (it's just a database)
    4) the second reference is WP:ABOUTSELF. Edward-Woodrow :) [talk] 22:39, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
