Feedback

The reviewer, Dan arndt, left the following feedback:

This draft lacks inline citations. Wikipedia's verifiability policy requires that all content be supported by reliable sources. We require inline citations (footnotes) to show which source supports which specific statement.

You must place an inline citation directly after:

• quotations;
• any material whose verifiability is likely to be challenged or is contentious;
• any material about living people.

Please edit your draft to support your statements with inline citations. Learn how to create inline citations in the:

• Source Editor: Introduction to referencing with Wiki Markup.
• VisualEditor: Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor.

This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for sports. The draft requires either:

• evidence that the subject meets any of the specific criteria for sports;

or multiple published secondary sources that:

• provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements;
• are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
• are independent: not connected to the subject, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.
