Comment: Issues previously mentioned have not been fixed, failing to establish WP:NBIO Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 15:41, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Most of the sources offer passing or no mentions of the subject, or report on the subject commenting on something. The only sources that contribute towards notability per WP:GNG are #2 and possibly #3, but these are not enough; we need at least one other solid source that fully meets the GNG criteria. DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:58, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Most of your sources talk about the company not the person. A couple sources cannot be used to establish notability as they are press releases or interviews. Finally, the Personal life section is unsourced. Qcne (talk) 20:18, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
