| Submission declined on 16 March 2024 by Vanderwaalforces (talk). This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. 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 people). 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. |  |

Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject. | |

Comment: The sources in the early life section fails verification. Fix that, remove the IMDd link, that is not reliable. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:26, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: See WP:BLP. Sourcing needs to verify statements, for example the source for the claim that the subject is signed to Trellis makes no such claim. Early life section is entirely unsourced. Claims like "prestigious Waasnode Fiction Prize in 2022" are promotional (besides being unsourced). Greenman (talk) 05:29, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
