Deceased porn performer who did not have an article while she was alive. Death is not a notable event. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:08, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple news articles surrounding this person's death. Should not have been marked for deletion. 71.147.48.38 (talk) 16:40, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And yet it was. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:50, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please keep the discussion civil. An administrator can decide if this page will remain. Counterfeit Purses is now ranting on my Talk Page. Like I said, I am OK with the decision of the administrator either way. This is not personal. Yellowbear48 (talk) 22:28, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge to an appropriate "list of deaths" article. Looks to be WP:BLP1E for her death. Phönedinger's jellyfish II (talk) 16:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per the jellyfish. All news coverage about her appears to be exclusively about her death.— Moriwen (talk) 17:11, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Only passes notability test because of death. Breaches. WP:BLP1E Jamesparkin (talk) 18:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would counter that she is notable NOT for her death, but for being in over 150 adult films, amassing over a million dollars, and for being a social media influencer. Her death was an event that covered her career (many events) as documented in the Internet Adult Film Database.Yellowbear48 (talk) 06:28, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Her death is notable in the sense that recently quite a few people with similar jobs have ended their lives. The pattern is notable. So Delete, but maybe cause for a meta topic? 95.96.130.127 (talk) 02:34, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Typical superficial 'mainstream' news coverage most porn performers get when they die. Most of the sourcing seems questionable as well. Nothing else out there of substance to create a better article. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 03:46, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I added Complex and Parade Magazine. These are fairly reputable sources. Yellowbear48 (talk) 06:30, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Upon re-reading this comment, whether conscious or unconscious, there is condescension regarding the profession of the performer (note the wording "most porn performers"). Notability is not decided by the moral views of editors. This is not meant as an attack on the editor - I merely note that the career-choice of the performer appears to be influencing some editors. Yellowbear48 (talk) 07:21, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm rather shocked she didn't have a page, considering she was one of the top performers in adult films in adult films in the late 2010's and very a brief time, was one of the top paid. The fact she didn't have one while she was alive was clearly an oversight. I say we keep her page and flesh it out better.
Because if what you said is going to be the standard, then there might be a couple of thousand pages that would be subject to deletion. Sportsfan1976 I'm only here because I'm not currently somewhere else. (talk) 12:07, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Humanly I feel deeply sorry for her premature and unjust death, but as porn actress she never made the definitive leap towards undisputed notability, probably because she never engaged in scenes which could grant her relevant awards in the industry. -- Blackcat 21:59, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
She had a following (over 300,000), people are curious. This is where we go to learn. It sounds as if you have another axe to grind possibly with her employment. 66.214.145.179 (talk) 20:45, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am inclined to agree with you that some may have an issue with her employment. She had over 400,000 followers on Twitter and Instagram combined - almost a half-million - and news coverage of her has been extensive. I will object to this article's removal at the highest levels, and will request a greater grace period. There is no consensus here as defined by Wikipedia policy.
