Draft:Vicky Harrison

Submission declined on 19 July 2026 by Bkissin (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the person meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for people. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:

provide significant coverage: discuss the person in detail, not brief mentions or interviews lacking independent analysis;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the person, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

This draft appears to be a news report or about a single event. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an indiscriminate collection of information or a news service. We generally do not accept articles about:

events that do not meet our criteria for inclusion for events;
people known only for a single incident.

Please add references published after the initial breaking news has passed that demonstrate the event's lasting significance. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.
