Comment: Follow up comment because you left a message on a talk page of mine on a different project. I do not believe your recent changes address my concerns at all. But I will not decline it a second time, I will allow another reviewer with a fresh set of eyes to take an independent look. Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 13:16, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- Comment: Your first citation, though it appears in a trade journal, looks like it does satisfy WP:SIRS but it is behind a paywall so I cannot tell for certain. However, your second citation is an interview without enough independent analysis to contribute to demonstrating notability, and your last citation is a bare URL so is of no use in either assessing notability or verifying the adjacent textin the article itself.
