in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: There needs to be more sources to (1) demonstrate the notablity and (2) general sourcing of points, with history and awards. This seems like a pretty solid article, though. Just source some more! I helped remove a lot of promotional language, just stay away from that. OnlyNano^talk 17:26, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
