This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Comment: zero improvement since previous decline, it is disruptive and pointless to re-submit without addressing the issues. Theroadislong (talk) 12:29, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Comment: Hi.
I’m sorry, but the sourcing here isn’t helping the subject meet our General Notability Guidelines. The sourcing provided is all content he has written. THat cannot be used to establish why he should have a Wikipedia article.
We need *significant* in-depth coverage in notable media outlets or by notable publishers about Conor MacDari. Examples: magazine and newspaper reviews and features about Conor MacDari specifically; books or peer-reviewed white papers written ABOUT Conor MacDari; television and radio features ABOUT Conor MacDari.
If those are available, please improve this submission. If not, then it might not be the right time (WP:TOOSOON for Conor MacDari to have a Wikipedia article.
I hope you will consider improving existing Wikipedia content about other subjects of interest!
If you have any questions please ask them at WP:TEAHOUSE.
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! Missvain (talk) 15:26, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Comment: No WP:SECONDARY sources ~Kvng (talk) 20:27, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Comment: Citations 9-24 are largely links to the articles themselves. By the time that you remove all of the links to original sources there are only a handful of citations left. Gusfriend (talk) 12:14, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Comment: Note to the submitter: It would probably be best not to keep submitting it without addressing the issues with the draft. The most likely outcome is that will keep getting declined, and eventually be rejected. Take some time to go over the page and add more information, and better sources. BuySomeApples (talk) 06:56, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Comment: This article needs more complete references and secondary sources. Right now it's a little unclear how much of the page is WP:Original research and notability also isn't well established. The page also has to be rewritten to be more encyclopedic. BuySomeApples (talk) 05:23, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Comment: Also, a lot of uncertainty here - "possibly aka", "his writings appear to include". Rusalkii (talk) 23:09, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
