Non-notable actress/youtuber. Lacks significant coverage in reliable sources, and no significant roles in notable productions to meet WP:NACTOR. Ab207 (talk) 11:40, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep on a quick look I'm seeing significant coverage in for example Tollywood and Times of India. I also don't think it's the best way of welcoming new editors to take their articles to AFD. Mujinga (talk) 12:22, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Mujinga. Tollywood.net is a gossip website (WP:NOTRS), and a collection of instagram posts by WP:TOI does not meet the standard of WP:SIGCOV. While its important to extend our support to new editors, it cannot be an excuse to keep a non-notable WP:BLP article in the mainspace. -- Ab207 (talk) 15:19, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ab207. Yes I agree poorly sourced BLP articles are not welcome but new editors should be and it must be discouraging to have an article immediately AFD'd. In any case, Sunaina is mentioned in 115 articles on Times of India, she has 3 million Instagram followers and over one million followers on YouTube so I think she's notable. If anyone speaks Telugu maybe some more biographical details can be added. Seasons greetings Mujinga (talk) 17:08, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, likewise. Most of the TOI articles are related to her appearance in Bigg Boss (Telugu season 2), so this may be redirected there per WP:ATD-R. I've ran a Telugu-language search but nothing substantial found to meet the GNG requirements. -- Ab207 (talk) 17:40, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please note, large number of followers on social media or subscriber count on YouTube is not a valid requirement for satisfying notability. Mujinga, please see criteria no. 2 for WP:NACTOR as well as WP:NYOUTUBE. Also, Wikipedia has not mentioned it anywhere that articles created by new editors shouldn't be taken to AfD.

Delete As per nom. No indication of notability. Fails WP:GNG, WP:NACTOR. DMySon (talk) 05:25, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Article needs a little clean-up by removing the Videography and Music Videos section. Other than that, the rest of the sources seem reliable, including the ones indicated by Mujinga. The article is far from passing WP:NACTOR since she only appeared in a movie so far, but since she's a YouTuber, it's good enough to pass WP:GNG.

Hello, Superastig. Most references are either from gossip sites or related to Bigg Boss show. Can you pick WP:THREE to support that the subject passes GNG? -- Ab207 (talk) 16:56, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No significant roles and not enough coverage to qualify for GNG. BASIC could be considered if the coverage was not as much routine or sensational and actually discussed and critiqued her work. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 23:52, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: a). Reality TV contestants are not notable. b). The subject has played minor role in a film, says IMDb. 3). For YouTube, it clearly lacks significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 00:28, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I do not feel this meets WP:NACTOR and there's lack of significant coverage in multiple, reliable and independent sources. So a complete GNG fail. ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 16:57, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
