  • Comment: This draft still reads like a business profile and not like a Wikipedia article. I haven't thorougly checked the sources, but I can already tell that there are duplicates, references to unreliable sources, and references to sources that aren't independent or even secondary. This is unacceptable. Best, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 14:39, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
