The comment the reviewer left was:
Not enough inline citations for the amount of information presented. “ He worked underground building confidence among many former unionists and this helped a lot in uniting the country.” According to who?
“ At Alhudahuda he met many young northern boys who bore their names along with their town's names and this made him to also start bearing Ibrahim Nock as his name.” Lots of run on sentences as well.

The comment the reviewer left was:
The examples Ktkvtsh mentioned are not the only ones; there are a lot of uncited statements throughout the article. Does the source really say

Nock’s career bridged technical training, union activism, and public administration... Mallam Ibrahim Nok is remembered as one of the foremost northern Nigerian trade union leaders, who helped shape the structure of labour federations during a critical period of Nigeria’s early independence.?

[edit]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 believe its because of the many mere mentions cited that makes you conclude that he is not worthy of an article. I used most of the google books citations to verify the years talked about and most of the citation have in-depth detail of the topic if you access the complete document on google books. This is a subject that the history of the Nigerian Trade Union movement can't be complete without the mention of his role. Wikipidia is the best and most reliable place to collect and preserve such histories. I am going to rewrite it and streamline the article focusing basically on the positions he held and the role he played in the development of Labour Union in Northern Nigeria Specifically. I wish wiki make provisions for uploading hardcopy content for validation. would have uploaded more independent sources to backup most of the tinks I cited. the fact that they exist and make their mark before the digital era should not disqualify them from wiki article Ibrahimnok (talk) 11:10, 25 September 2025 (UTC)
