Comments

I personally see no reason for this article to be marked for deletion. 86.147.174.20 (talk) 21:15, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I second the decision to remove the mark for deletion. This person is a notable person for making it to Maxim's top 100. ~ter890~talk 16:56, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete

Other than the Maxim hot 100 List she has not done anything that is Notable. Yes she is on a show that might have missions of views. That does not make her notable she is one of many youtuber. As many say Sourcefed had millions of views, where is your data to back it up? you have to to have third party data, your option is not enough. Also there was a supposed crash on Maxim because of the votes but again where is your proof? This wiki entry looks like a joke to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.145.133 (talk) 21:55, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Where is my proof about the 100 million of views on sourcefed? [1][2][3] Proof of the crash: [4] Exact proof can't be shown since you weren't on the website at the time of the crash. And this wiki entry is supposed to be the joke? Soulboost (talk) 11:59, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Although their is some evidence to provide hints that their was a crash for example, Maxim had to add a captcha security feature which changed the entire voting process.[5] Soulboost (talk) 08:34, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notability Tag

  • This article just was "kept" at AFD, yet one editor keeps placing a "notability" tag on the article (and removing content), even though he participated in the AfD and was apparently unable to convince fellow editors of his opinion. I have no personal opinion as to this article, however, I don't believe people who "lose" at AfD should try to delete by subterfuge immediately after an AfD closes.--Milowenthasspoken 15:44, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
AFD is to decide if an article is deleted, not whether it currently meets policy/guideline x. Resolve the issue of having an in detail 3rd party source, then you can remove it yourself.--Otterathome (talk) 15:50, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • The vast majority of AfD discussions are brought to test the notability of the subject. Indeed, here the AfD nominator's sole rationale in total was "This subject lacks notability." There was no other valid basis for discussion at that point. The consensus outcome was that she was notable. You participated in the discussion. Remove the tag now or you may be perma-banned.--Milowenthasspoken 15:54, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I see no consensus that the subject meets notability guidelines.--Otterathome (talk) 16:09, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It was kept because its notable. WP:NOTABILITY says the article must meet the general notability guidelines or a subject specific guideline. WP:ENTERTAINER is clearly met. I see no reason for that tag, so I'm removing it. Dream Focus 18:46, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Do explain.--Otterathome (talk) 17:25, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It was explained to you by someone already in the AFD. Maxim proves she Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following. and thus passing WP:ENTERTAINER. Dream Focus 18:11, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Completely fails the basic criteria, but skims by as 'Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following' due to being mentioned after being spammed on a website. None of the sources go beyond a passing mention. Seems like a good example of WP:1E/WP:BLP1E to me. Will go AFD again in due course, assuming the 3rd party sources remain the same.--Otterathome (talk) 18:54, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The YouTube channel has 430,943 subscribers and 114,536,964 video views. [6] So I'm thinking she had a cult following before this. Dream Focus 19:41, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Probably had to do with it being a Phillip Defranco Inc. channel, which has millions of subscribers who will do what he wants
