| Submission declined on 16 October 2023 by Timtrent (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. I'm having difficulty with this. I want to accept an article on "the youngest female director in the American Repertory Theater's history" but I cannot see a reference for that.
I'm seeing references about things she has directed, but I'm not seeing enough references about Cannold. What is here is fascinating, but does not show that she passes WP:BIO. Ok, I might just not have happened on them, I've not checked every reference. I've checked sufficient that show me this is below the acceptance threshold. This suggestion may seem radical. Write this afresh, totally afresh. Follow the process outlined in this essay, one of many on article creation. And references about Cannold first. Marshall them into a storyboard, and write, in your own words, what they say. She appears to me to have inherent notability. The question is "Does it pass our threshold?" Your job is to prove that it does.

Comment: Hi. I'm sorry, but none of the sourcing here helps the subject meet our general notability guidelines. We cannot use a lot of the content here to establish notability. We cannot use alumni magazines, content Sammi Cannold wrote themselves, Medium content, the Theatre Workshop website, WSJ (Sammi Cannold isn’t even mentioned), paid contributor articles in Forbes, listicles like the 30 under 30, Exhale Lifestyle (is this a blog?), and I’m sorry to hear the trauma her partner went through, but, that article does not establish her notability about her career in theater. The Playbill content is OK, but we need more publication than just Playbill. We need *significant* coverage in notable media outlets or by notable publishers. Examples: magazine and newspaper interviews and features about Sammi Cannold; books written ABOUT Sammi Cannold; television and radio features ABOUT Sammi Cannold. It can’t be passing mentions of works by them, or interviews in non-notable publications or those by paid contributors to publications.If those are available, please improve this submission. If not, then it appears to be WP:TOOSOON for Sammi Cannold to have their own Wikipedia article.I hope you will consider improving existing Wikipedia content about other subjects of interest! If you have any questions please ask them at WP:TEAHOUSE. Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! Missvain (talk) 23:16, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: I am attempting to grandfather in the work of a previous editor into this draft space, please lmk if there are any hold-over issues I missed. I am not the original creator, just attempting to rescue a draft. In writing this draft, I've found that the subject is "on the line" when it comes to notability requirements, but meets them if we consider the AfC guidelines strictly as written. The person is already mentioned in other articles, so I can de-orphan the page relatively quickly. Ultimately, I'll defer the final decision to the reviewer, hence why I chose to draftspace this and not outright create the page. Etriusus 20:05, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: The only two sources that show direct, significant coverage of the subject is the Stanford magazine and Forbes. The 30 under 30 award is one of the subset categories. There's literally hundreds of those awarded each year. At least in the link provided she is just mentioned in a very short quip as part of a slideshow. The Stanford magazine isn't much to show notability as the magazine would inherently give undue weight to alums. Sulfurboy (talk) 07:36, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
