Thank you to the reviewer. Will work to make it better for this wikipedia. I am confused as it asked for more citations for a living person, yet reviewer said there are too many citations. I am happy to remove the excess and have it read more objectively. Any help you could give me on all of these points would be appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nashvillelotus (talk • contribs) 11:32, May 21, 2020 (UTC)
 * Nashvillelotus, I know it can be confusing to see both messages so I'll try to help. You might want to review the General Notability Guideline, which applies these same standards.  "Notability" means something slightly different in Wikipedia terms than it does in regular English.
 * The key for referencing new articles about a living person is that the sources used need three qualities: significance, reliability, and independence. Significance: the source cited needs to be significantly about the person who is the subject of the article you are writing.  If the source is really about some-one or something else and just mentions the article subject in passing, for example, it is not significant.  List articles, database listings, or other sources that merely include the article subject as one of many items with little or no context are also examples of non-significant sources.  Reliability: the source needs to be one that is generally considered to be a responsible and dependable source of genuine information.  Tabloids, social media, self-published sources like blogs and wikis (even this one) etc. are not reliable sources. Independence: any source that is connected to the article subject is problematic.  We prefer sources about living persons to be independent of the person themselves.  So, a person's own writings, a website of their publisher or record company, the press releases from a company they are connected to, etc. are not independent.
 * A new article needs sources that are all three of this things, not some that are independent and some that are reliable and some that are significant. When an article reviewer sees a plethora of sources and sees that some show only one or two of those qualities, that is a red flag.  It says to the reviewer that the person writing the article either does not know about this requirement or does know and is trying to "get around" it by presenting a flood of partially-compliant sources.  It is better for a new article to use a smaller number of good-quality sources than a large amount of iffy sources. I hope this helps explain the standards used.

 Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk&action=edit&section=new&nosummary=1&preload=Template:Afc_decline/HD_preload&preloadparams%5B%5D=Draft:Jack_Bradley Articles for creation help desk] or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Robert McClenon was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: This draft does not satisfy general notability. The subject, as mayor of a city with a population of 65,000, does not satisfy political notability.

The infobox appears to be a hoax. It indicates that the subject is a member of the United States House of Representatives (which would pass political notability if true) from Ohio's 56th district. Ohio has 16 Congressional districts, and the text of the draft does not indicate that the subject was elected to the United States House of Representatives.
