Draft:Tania G. Levey
Submission declined on 19 October 2024 by Chaotic Enby (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: Hi! You will need reliable secondary sources talking in-depth about you to be able to write a solid article. Also linking to Wikipedia:Autobiographies and Wikipedia:An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing if you want! Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 16:26, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
