Draft:David Mcbay

Submission declined on 17 September 2024 by Curb Safe Charmer (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: Rather than having lots of references that just prove the existence of the patents, for this to be included in Wikipedia you'd need to replace them with references that show that other reliable, independent publications have already written in depth about Mcbay's life and work.

Comment: Please dial back on the WP:REFBOMBING, we don't need five sources to support each statement. Pick the three strongest sources that establish notability per WP:GNG, and summarise what they have said about this person, citing each source against the information it has provided. Then, if you need to cite additional sources to adequately support the contents, do so. I wouldn't expect to see more than ~5 sources in total, in such a short stub; 24 is complete overkill.
Also, the 'External links' list is far too long, violating WP:EL. Cut down to ideally just one link (eg. the subject's official website), and at most a few. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:20, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
