Draft:Shane Hewitt
| Submission declined on 9 July 2025 by PunjabiEditor69 (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.

Comment: We can get into notability once you sort out your references. I think he has borderline notability, but your references diminish that. Good references may tip the balance.Please do not just link to playbills which mention him. They are valid, but inly to verify simple facts. WP:YOUTUBE tells you when you may use it as a reference.For a living person we have a high standard of referencing. Every substantive fact you assert, especially one that is susceptible to potential challenge, requires a citation with a reference that is about them, and is independent of them, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS, and is significant coverage. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact cited, that meet these tough criteria is likely to make this draft a clear acceptance (0.9 probability). Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the person is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today. 🇵🇸🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦🇵🇸 09:54, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: The draft contains very bold claims that are based on what the subject's website claims. Please cite intellectually independent sources. --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 18:58, 16 March 2025 (UTC)
