This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: Check out the other Proposition articles currently live on Wikipedia. This doesn't meet our requirements for an article - instead it is written as if it's a debate. Qcne (talk) 21:54, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
