I have finished assessing the page. I had to rewrite most of it to fix Wikipedia's editorial guidelines, but I'm still unsure if Post meets Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. The two sources from The MoCo Student and all of the Bethesda Magazine sources contribute to GNG, while all of the others do not because Post is a passing mention in the article (WTOP-FM, Yale Daily News, LA School Report, Youth Radio, The Atlantic, The Baltimore Sun, and Maryland Matters). The Warrior Online and The Black and White may count toward GNG, but I'm unsure about Wikipedia's policies on student publications and whether they're considered an independent source. The sources that count toward GNG for this article are also hyper-local to Montgomery County, so it'd be great if some more national news sources about Post could be added to the page - in my search, I could not find any.

I plan to move this article to draftspace in two days from now if you're unable to find any additional sources that count toward GNG. As I see it, this page currently does not pass GNG. Y2hyaXM (talk) 02:41, 30 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
To me, his notability seemed pretty consistent if not better than many of his colleagues in the post-Parkland gun violence movement that have Wikipedia pages. Anisva071 (talk) 05:10, 1 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
@Anisva071 All of the people in the Parkland high school shooting activists category are either survivors of or relatives of people who were murdered in the attack. Further, all of their pages contain citations from national news sources that count toward GNG, while this page only contains two hyper-local sources and multiple other sources that mention Post in passing. This article needs more citations from national news sources to prove Post's notability; in my own research, I was unable to find any national news articles that mention Post in length.

Not your fault! The article is in good shape and, arguably, almost ready to be moved back to the mainspace. It just needs more sources from national news sources, since right now most of the sources that count toward GNG are from Bethesda Magazine and The MoCo Student, two very hyper-local sources.
