  • Comment: Primary sources do not establish notability per WP:GNG. The lone secondary source (Stuff) is not alone enough.
    The cited sources must actually verify the information against which they are cited, and all material information must be supported by reliable sources. Now this is not the case. For example, ref #3 is there to support the statement "Clarke began his Archives and Records Management career as a Graduate Trainee in the West Glamorgan Archives Service". However, the source cited does not even mention Clarke. The following statement ("In 2004, he joined the the Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales as a Records Manager") is not referenced at all. (These are just two examples of many.) DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:08, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
