this is basically a fan site praising Gueye with nothing that's actually sourced to independent rs - just a brief 15 seconds of fame for dancing on Ellen, he never won an awrd and theres no coverage otherwise PRAXIDICAE💕 16:47, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

- Comment Just want to note that Salif does have 2.3 million instagram followers - and while I'd hardly want Wikipedia to be composed by the basis of how many social media followers a person has, it does lend credibility that the individual has some degree of following / "real world notability" and isn't simply a backup dancer or similar A MINOTAUR (talk) 03:24, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Salif Gueye's name is already on Wikipedia in another pages. He performed in Montreux Jazz Festival, Michael Jackson night, etc. Also Michael JAckson's official site adds Salif Gueye's performs. He called Next to Michael Jackson and continues his history.

- Followed are not a good measure. Followers and likes can both and are often bought. PRAXIDICAE💕 12:48, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
- Salif Gueye have verified instagram account. It means followers and likes are real. Rma17 (talk) 16:41, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
- No, it absolutely doesn't. Instagram doesn't verify each follower of verified accounts. Get real. PRAXIDICAE💕 16:43, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
- They cannot check each follower one by one. Fake followers makes low activity of profile, which instagram can check: Followers are raising, Activity is going down. Actually Instagram gives verify for famous people. Rma17 (talk) 15:36, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
