Autobiography
It looks very much as if you are writing an autobiography. Please read WP:Autobiography to understand why that might be a very bad idea. Thanks  Velella  Velella Talk 16:24, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

This is a notable submission not currently available on wiki Thank you Thank You Thanks Garyallen262 (talk) 23:03, 30 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Well, no it isn't. Please read WP:GNG for an overview of what constitutes notability. For what it is worth, I have fixed up one of your references to make it look like a Wikipedia article but as this appears to be an interview reported by a local source, it wouldn't, in my view, count towards notability. May I suggest that you update all your refs so that the next reviewer has an easier job. Articles that are easy to read with easily understood references have a better chance of success than those that are poorly structured.  Velella  Velella Talk  23:15, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

Garyallen262 (talk) 22:19, 7 July 2016 (UTC) I have fixed the article per Delta13C Instructions and input below. Symbol opinion vote.svg Comment: This guy appears to be notable given the amount of coverage he has received. At first I thought the article was suffering from being notable for one event, but then noticed that media sources have covered him for other achievements. My misinterpretation was to blame on the very poor referencing style and organization. Please fix these issues promptly; read this. Delta13C (talk) 06:34, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
