| Submission declined on 25 April 2024 by Alalch E. (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: Reads like a CV and "was featured/quoted in" content is promotional. The sources do not cover the subject. The subject is not the topic of their coverage. Because of this, they do not contribute to notability. Usually, the easiest path to notability for a biographical topic, when the person covered has written books, is book reviews. See WP:NAUTHOR. —Alalch E. 11:19, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
