Comment: Most sources are just passing mentions. Notability is not inherited, thus being a son of a well know Mr Doe does not mean Junior Doe needs a standalone article. Instead, look for sources that strictly talk about the subject themselves that are independent of the subject. Tumbuka Arch (talk) 18:05, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: What you need to do is to show that Johnstone passes WP:NACTOR. I have solved the niggly little reference items for you, but please check what I have done and learn how to do it. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 08:45, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
