| Submission declined on 24 October 2024 by ThadeusOfNazereth (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. 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: The sourcing is currently not sufficient to show that Devrient meets either the general notability guideline or the actor-specific notability guideline. The Frost Magazine, Female First, and Theatre Voice sources are all interviews that don't represent independent coverage (and Frost especially does not seem usable due to the very noticeable spelling and grammatical errors). The other two sources are not about Devrient and are instead about a show that he is appearing in.Additionally, the article itself is not written in an encyclopedic tone - There should not be a sentence that says "Sources that show notability" and proper nounds should be capitalized.

- Comment: Almost none of the information is sourced. There is one source (1 press release published in 2 different places = 1 source) and that only mentions his name in passing as one of the actors in an upcoming TV series. A press release does not count towards notability (for that, independent and secondary sources is required), and this particular press release does not constitute significant coverage. bonadea contributions talk 09:53, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
