Draft:Mr. Riopelle
| Submission declined on 18 December 2024 by Significa liberdade (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 music-related topics). 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. The article creator, Mr.riopellebooking, has a clear conflict-of-interest and may need to complete a payment disclosure.
