Should never have been kept at the first AfD. Examining the sources brought up:

Tubefilter Clearly marketing on behalf of Semaphore as stated in the article itself. Fails WP:INDEPENDENT
Dexerto Unreliable per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 262#Dexerto
Twingalaxies No indication of any reliability
Chart attack Unusable gossip source
siliconindia Trivial coverage

So I don't see that there's a single source for WP:BASIC, nor could I find any. Galobtter (pingó mió) 22:24, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This woman is famous... https://www.google.com/search?q=sssniperwolf&source=lnms&tbm=nws&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj8-tLlm5npAhU2yosBHfGYDxkQ_AUoA3oECBkQBQ&biw=2560&bih=1253 -CoronaEditor (talk) 03:02, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CoronaEditor, Being "famous" as per google hits or any such metric doesn't grant notability; having multiple reliable sources significantly describing the subject, which allows writing a proper article on the person, is what makes a person notable, as per WP:GNG. Among those google hits do you find any reliable sources that could be used to write an article on her? Galobtter (pingó mió) 03:47, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
How about Forbes https://www.forbes.com/profile/sssniperwolf/#2eb2f5ea57a2 and Medium.com https://medium.com/@chen_boost/fun-facts-about-famous-gaming-youtube-star-sssniperwolf-e0b1063c18f6 ? - CoronaEditor (talk) 04:50, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Forbes only has short blurb on her, which I don't think really counts as significant coverage, and medium is a blogging website and so that source isn't reliable per WP:BLOG. Galobtter (pingó mió) 04:57, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hollywood Reporter, which has been in existence since 1930 (90 years ago), is a respected media source. -CoronaEditor (talk) 06:29, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to 2020 Kids' Choice Awards, coverage either consists of trivial mentions lasting a sentence or so, or coverage coming from unreliable sources, or coverage that is clearly marked as promotional. She therefore fails GNG, but she is mentioned at the target page. Devonian Wombat (talk) 08:25, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
On redirecting, there's a bit of an issue on doing that since 2019 Kids' Choice Awards and 2019 Teen Choice Awards are valid targets too. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:26, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Its probably best to gravitate towards the most recent one in a situation like this where there is no clear primary target. Devonian Wombat (talk) 12:31, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per ATD-R, as Devonian Wombat suggests: there is a dearth of independent coverage in reliable sources sufficient to pass the WP:BASIC requirements. SERIAL ^# 10:16, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:N. Redirecting to Kid's Choice Award is also acceptable. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:32, 4 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Noting that I'm fine with redirecting to 2020 Kids' Choice Awards too. Galobtter (pingó mió) 02:54, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Closing admin, please note there are two more academic links and one more media link since article nomination. -CoronaEditor (talk) 00:59, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment As per WP:APPNOTE, I have informed the article creators about the ongoing AfD. Thank you. -CoronaEditor (talk) 01:58, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article creator was User:Keke Zoë and they were already informed of the nomination by Galobtter. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 02:06, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fine. I'll strike-through them. -CoronaEditor (talk) 02:07, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Though I don't think it makes sense to redirect it to Kid's Choice Awards as Galobtter and Devonian suggested. That article only mentions her name once and does not contain any useful biographical information about her. Michepman (talk) 04:11 9 May 2020 (UTC)
Delete. A case of a gallant attempt at fame, initiated by an editor with a declared interest in putting up in Wikipedia articles about "YouTubers, influencers," etc. However, there are no adequate sources, either in number or in quality, to support the case for our subject's notaibility. Google hits and YouTube views are unimportant in the context of sourcing. -The Gnome (talk) 22:43, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
