  • Comment: The only substantive change since the last decline has been the addition of a new source, a WordPress blog, which does nothing to help establish notability. My recommendation would be to reject this as non-notable, but I will leave the decision for another reviewer, as I have already declined this twice. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:36, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
