Accepted via AfC back in 2012 (am not sure how its issues didn't get flagged then), would never be accepted nowadays. BLP without any cited references (already an issue in itself). Gabrielle Geppert has a successful vintage shop, but this is not sufficent to confer notability as there seems to be very little readily accessible reliable sources about her, other than advertisements/promo in guidebooks, passing mentions of visits to her shop. (Jennifer Aniston dropped in once.) I couldn't spot any articles specifically talking about the shop that might have shown that the store had published notability in itself, let alone several reliable third party articles that would have collected together to demonstrate notability. The sources listed in the article (but not cited) seem to mainly be promotional, or self-published blogs. It was created by a single-purpose editor who has made no edits outside the article, and again last year by another single-purpose editor whose 5 Wikipedia edits were all on this article. Sadly, I don't think there is sufficient notability to be found here per Wikipedia's rules. Mabalu (talk) 00:15, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

- Weak Delete It does read promotional. This is another one of those articles that might have something out there that can provide notability, but doesn't as it is. I'm honestly on the fence, but the fact that it reads so promotionally makes me wonder if it should just be deleted and recreated. I was involved in a similar AFD a few weeks back and this feels similar, but with less likelihood of notability. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 15:16, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
