Draft:Barry Squire
| Submission declined on 22 December 2023 by Tagishsimon (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: See WP:NARTIST, WP:GNG and WP:RS. Refs in this article do not convey notability. Refs to the subject's own company are of no use at al and should be removed.I really doubt that this subject meets WP:N. You will need to find much better refs if you wish to make the case.There is, also, a strong whiff of advert about this article, which is not good. Tagishsimon (talk) 20:24, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
