We are back to this entry again. After being deleted in January 2018, the subject of this thin biography managed to enlist another contributor to add her to this encyclopedia again -- quite common a practice on Upwork and Reddit. I move that this entry be deleted, once again, for non-notability and it's creator be investigated. The only notability criteria is participation in obscure beauty pageants, supposed contributions to some newspapers (for which there is no evidence), and the claim that she is a poet. Yet, a Google search reveals that this "poet" has not been published anywhere significant other than platforms that accept all submissions -- platforms I submitted to as a 16-year-old "poet". The quick Google search also reveals nothing notable about the subject of this entry, other than vanity profiles they've created. There are many prominent Ugandans who deserve entries on this platform; this is not one of them. This person lacks any notability criteria at all and is, at best, a vain self-promoter.

Delete the discussion we had two years ago produced the right result. I still think it is high time we start making every new article go through the AfC process.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:21, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I don't know what is meant by the claim that "the subject of this thin biography managed to enlist another contributor to add her to this encyclopedia again -- quite common a practice on Upwork and Reddit". To the best of my knowledge, I've never communicated with the subject of this biography. And if you'd like to investigate me, that would be lovely, but it would have been even lovelier to have pinged me first. Dsp13 (talk) 21:26, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Additional research and updates to the article seem to support WP:BASIC, including because "multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability." Musoke-Nteyafas appears to have a multi-faceted, multi-national career, and there appear to be additional references available, including based on information included in the recently-added 2007 UGPulse profile.

Keep. The edit and deletion histories seem a bit overrated in the deletion intro. We don't do spite keep or delete but look at articles and subjects "as is". And "as is" it currently passes the WP:GNG. Even without WP:NEXIST. So the choice is easy. gidonb (talk) 22:26, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

BTW I'm very much in favor of more articles on Uganda and Ugandans. Especially historical figures. gidonb (talk) 01:35, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: To the creator of the entry in discussion, it was my intention to ping you but it was hard enough working with this encyclopedia's outdated and archaic procedures to get it here, and I was not about to waste another hour figuring out other things. Same goes for the comment above this one on Ugandan historical figures; simplify stuff around here and many of us will contribute more. That said, irrelevant entries like the one in discussion, backed by "authoritative" sources like Ugpulse, convince most of us (Ugandans) that the "expertise" and "knowledge" that counts here is that of foreigners who could care less about what really matters. The subject of this deletion discussion has never been notable in Uganda and will never be. Cartney23 (talk) 18:57, 27 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
