Delete unless someone can find and cite significant coverage of this person in reliable sources that are entirely independent of this person. I looked and could find nothing compelling. Of the three references in the current version of the article, one is a dead link, another is controlled by this person, and the third is a school promoting one of their students, and therefore not independent. The recent name change is irrelevant. If the article is kept in the end, the title can be corrected then. Cullen328 (talk) 04:31, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete this article fails all the notability guidelines - @Cullen328 I believe @Rich Smith included the name change so we don't misgender this individual. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 16:05, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment On WP:BLP grounds and at the apparent request of the subject, I have moved the article from Lily Benson to Lucky Benson and updated this AFD to reflect that, as much as I can without breaking things. The Wordsmith^{Talk to me} 00:00, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Agreed with Cullen. The newest reference is a press release announcing their being hired by Audience, not independent. Nothing else has come up. JoelleJay (talk) 05:31, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete or Draftify My WP:BEFORE on Google Books, Google News, newspapers.com, and JSTOR is unable to locate WP:SIGCOV WP:INDEPENDENT of the subject's employer. However, my understanding is there was a recent name change involving the subject and, without a full naming history, my BEFORE may not be sufficient. I'd, therefore, be open to draftifying this for a period of time to permit the originating editor, or whomever, to work on it. Chetsford (talk) 05:35, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Inspired by a post on Wikipediocracy, I brushed up this BLP with information from the existing sources plus what else I could find. (The sources I found were all under their former name.) I was unable to find extended coverage: the longest I found is the Baruch exhibition write-up that we were already using. They have made several experimental videos; I amplified the filmography. But I see no evidence that their work has attracted enough notice to meet either the GNG or WP:NARTIST. Yngvadottir (talk) 12:11, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
