Submission declined on 28 March 2024 by Jamiebuba (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. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted. If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

• Comment: articles from Kyiv Post and Euromaidan Press kind of meet WP:SIGNIFICANT? some of the other sourcing is troublesome, though. She was ^afairy 05:24, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
  Hi @Shewasafairy: and thanks for the review! While not the most reliable source, I believe the Daily Kos citations are used in an acceptable manner, as they are not being used to support a claim, but to show that they have used statements made by Davydov in their work. To also alleviate sourcing concerns, I've separated the Primary and Secondary Youtube sources to make that clearer. This article has been in the draftspace for awhile, so if you have a chance, I hope you could take a second look at it to see if it meets mainspace requirements yet. Cheers!

• Comment: Daily Kos is an unreliable source, and the other two sources are merely lists with brief paragraphs about his YouTube channel. Significant coverage is needed to meet the requirements of WP:GNG. – DreamRimmer (talk) 12:02, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

• Comment: I don't see any sources of sufficient biographical weight for this to pass WP:GNG. There are no significant studies of the person themself or of their wider life, just their journalism and mentions thereof. That does not source a biography. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 16:48, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

• Comment: I normally don't find Youtubers notable, but there are a handful of sources that may meet GNG. I'm still on the fence, but I will defer to other AFC reviewers. Bkissin (talk) 18:16, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
