Comment: Sorry, ManofSteel. You've added more reference links since the last review, but most are either dead links or links to the front page of a website that don't actually mention Katie Talbert. A few barely mention Katie Talbert in a sentence or two, but don't go in depth. We want "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", that's the Wikipedia:General notability guideline. More than a sentence or two. If she's an award winning goalkeeper, she probably has that coverage, but you haven't shown it with these links. Also, the image is great but at first glance at least seems to be a copyright violation, please see https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/File:National_Champions.jpg GRuban (talk) 14:30, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
