Comment: In addition - I see now there was another draft by you with a slightly different title spelling, different content, but that has the WP:COI banner, which this does not have. Can you kindly clarify which draft you wish to work on, so that we can handle the duplicate. ChrysGalley (talk) 19:23, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
- Comment: Because the subject is still alive, then under WP:BLP we will need inline reliable sources for all facts that can be questioned. The Early life section is unsourced. At the moment the notability isn't clear, See the specific notability for musicians, under WP:MUSICBIO to ensure that notability and sourcing is in place.
