Comment: Announcements about the subject being ppointed to certain roles count as WP:ROUTINE coverage and not WP:SIGCOV. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 12:34, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Comment: Sources are not WP:SIGCOV and are just passing mentions or primary. Lightoil (talk) 02:44, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Comment: This is a WP:BLP article, so all statements and claims should be backed up with inline citations to reliable sources. There are a couple of unreferenced paragraphs that should ideally be backed up with inline citations to reliable sources or removed if they are unverifiable.
