{{AFC comment|1=Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, WP:NPROF) but presently it is not clear that it does.
As other reviewers have noted, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published {{strong|secondary sources}} that are {{strong|reliable}}, intellectually independent of each other, and {{strong|independent of the subject}}. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’.
Please note that notability is established by reliable sources about the subject, not by the subject.
Please note that many of the references would appear to be from sources that are NOT considered {{strong|reliable}} for establishing notability and should be removed (including blogs, company websites, press releases, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Spotify etc).
Please note that many of the references are not formatted correctly (see Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor and Wikipedia’s Manual of Style for help).
Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like a promotional CV, which Wikipedia is not; and contains prose that is not of a standard appropriate for an encyclopaedia (also see WP:PEACOCK).
Also, thank you for declaring your conflict of interest, that you are David Jarvis (see WP:AUTOBIO).
Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page. It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject.
It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:NPROF criteria #3, because XXXXX").
Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page and I would be happy to reassess. Cabrils (talk) 05:20, 26 June 2025 (UTC)}}
{{AFC comment|1=You need to realize that these pages are often reviewed by notable academics. They are not going to be impressed by a long list of claims. These are WP:Peacock, and this article is full of puffery and WP:REFBOMBING. Cut the research description to 1/4 of what it is, add his Google Scholar profile. Whether he will pass WP:NPROF is unclear. Ldm1954 (talk) 12:24, 18 June 2025 (UTC)}}
{{AFC comment|1=Please rewrite or remove all content written in a promotional tone and remove the many unnecessary references. I don't think describing each paper or project in detail is due weight; for instance, the "European team that worked on 3D printing of metallic alloys" is only cited to primary sources, and thus should not be included unless mentioned in secondary sources as well. Toadspike [Talk] 16:30, 17 June 2025 (UTC)}}
{{AFC comment|1=Please dial back the WP:REFBOMBING. There is virtually never the need for more than one citation to support a given statement; two at the outside, if it's a particularly contentious one. Certainly not twenty. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:05, 17 June 2025 (UTC)}}
