Clarification Request Regarding Draft Rejection (Tom Sekatwe)

Dear JavaHurricane,

Thank you for taking the time to review my draft submission.

I understand the concerns raised about notability and the intended purpose of Wikipedia. However, I would like to respectfully seek clarification and guidance on how best to improve the article to meet Wikipedia’s standards.

Specifically:

  1. Notability – I would appreciate help identifying what kind of reliable, independent secondary sources (e.g., published media, books, academic references) would sufficiently demonstrate the subject’s notability. I believe the subject has made verifiable contributions in the telecommunications and public sector space, and I am willing to revise the draft accordingly with credible sources.
  2. Tone and Intent – If any part of the draft came across as promotional or resembling an advertisement, I sincerely apologize. That was not the intention. I am committed to rewriting the content in a neutral, encyclopedic tone aligned with Wikipedia’s guidelines.
  3. Previous Rejection – I noticed that the draft had been rejected before. I believed the updated version addressed earlier concerns. If I misunderstood the required changes, please advise me on what remains lacking so I can make the necessary corrections.

Would you be open to offering suggestions or examples of comparable articles that meet the notability bar in similar domains?

Thank you again for your time and for upholding the standards of the Wikipedia community. I value the feedback and am keen to learn from it.

Kind regards,

@Tomsekatwe: I'm not going to respond to an AI-generated message. Please write your message, with whatever concerns you have, in your own words. Any further AI-generated messages will be summarily ignored. JavaHurricane 11:16, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Sir
I take your feedback seriously, and I still appreciate the guidance you are offering, and I take it as a contribution. What you have highlighted as promotional material was already taken care of in the previous drafts, as seen in the draft history. In summary, this updated version addresses all the earlier concerns.
Kind regards,
