Request for Review - Updated Draft

Requesting Reconsideration with Additional Reliable Sources

Hi reviewers — thank you for your time and feedback on this draft. In response to the previous declines citing lack of independent sources, I’ve now included two substantial profile interviews that help establish clear notability for Michael Antonio Hunter:

VoyageATL – Conversations & Inspiring Stories – a full-length interview feature specifically about Hunter’s career, creative philosophy, and professional journey.

Sheen Magazine (Archived) – an independent editorial profile covering Hunter’s rise in the photography and entertainment industries.

In addition to these, the article includes citations from:

Essence (interview),

Time.com,

Rolling Out,

HelloBeautiful,

and a named credit in The Blonds (Rizzoli) coffee-table book.

All references are now inline and verifiable, and I believe this addresses the earlier concerns around notability and reliable sourcing. Kindly re-review the draft when possible.

Thank you! Star Dani (talk) 13:40, 2 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
