Draft:Jordan Jereb
| Submission declined on 5 October 2024 by S0091 (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. This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

Comment: Most of this is sourced to his YouTube channels which is at best is a primary source so cannot be used to establish notability and should only be used very sparingly and only for very basic non-contentious facts. Also see WP:SPLC regarding the use of Southern Law Poverty Center. If there are no reliable secondary sources to support the content, it generally should not be included. In addition, this appears to contain original research which is not allowed. S0091 (talk) 14:54, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
