| Submission declined on 20 May 2024 by Theroadislong (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are: Declined by Theroadislong 6 months ago.

Comment: Please fix all failed verifications, as well as all claims which need citations. --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 00:42, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Please remove all the external links from the 'Projects' and 'Additional Articles and Sources' sections, these are not allowed. Convert to referencing where relevant. In any case, the first of those sections is too long, and should only include the most notable items, if any. The latter is a non-standard section, and should probably be removed altogether.
