Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Clovermoss 🍀  (talk) 05:51, 15 February 2023 (UTC)

Living people
Hi, I noticed your draft. I removed some of the content because it is very important that content written about living people that's contentious is sourced to reliable sources. High school rumours are not reliable sources. I'd also encourage you to look for three, in-depth sources that discuss him in-depth, as the Wikipedia guideline on notability is a crucial factor in whether or not drafts are accepted as articles. If you have any questions or need me to clarify anything, feel free to ask. Clovermoss 🍀 (talk) 05:56, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
