| Submission declined on 23 April 2024 by Novem Linguae (talk). 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.

Comment: Nice job with the citations. But the citations are not in depth enough. They do not appear to pass WP:GNG. Articles that just interviewed or quoted her are not independent. Articles that just mention her without going into depth are not enough significant coverage. Please add better citations if they exist. –Novem Linguae (talk) 09:04, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
