Than you for your feedback. The source of the references I have submitted are for local newspapers at the time. They are achieved in the national library of Australia. NLA. This unfortunately is the only source I can draw from as there is no information anywhere else. I would imagine if this information was published in a newspaper 90 years ago and then ratified by the national Library of Australia it would be hard to say this information is not accurate or correct. At this stage it may only be one source. But this information comes from different newspapers at the time. I have a photo, many newspaper articles. I would think the national library of Australia is not only a credible source but highly reliable establishment for credible and honest information. There is nothing to suggest anything written about William Thomas Drain is not true or unreliable. I am keen to understand why a newspaper article or archives of the national library of Australia are not viable for verification? Neilf72 (talk) 08:25, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Newspaper articles in the archives of the National Library of Australia can indeed be used as sources. It seems the issue here is because you didn't use a recognizable citation format, so it wasn't clear what something like "NLA.news-article00000.0" means. Rather than just dumping a NLA reference number, a reference to newspaper articles should be done using {{Cite news}} template, filling information about the article author, title, date, newspaper, etc. Are these articles accessible in a digitized format on the NLA website? If so, you should also include a url to that, which would be tremendously helpful for the purposes of accessing them in order to verify facts in your draft.
