  • Comment: Since the last decline the only change has been the addition of a honors list with a citation to weebly (a generally unreliable source).
    I see the Drake epgn.com and Mikiti inquirer references as good, are there any other newspaper/magazine articles with non-trivial content?
    I am on the verge of accepting the draft, but I like knowledge a whole lot more than most around here so it may end up getting deleted anyway. And the conflict of interest bugs me. Commander Keane (talk) 13:27, 6 January 2026 (UTC)
  • Comment: Awards are everywhere, given out on a whim, and not all as prestigious as an Oscar. Either way, the source has only a single unrelated mention of the Falcons. mwwv converseedits 13:23, 8 December 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment: Subject may be notable, but needs more reliable sources before it can be accepted. I2Overcome talk 06:47, 5 December 2025 (UTC)
