I am uncertain if this meets the WP:GNG requirement, specifically the part on significant coverage from third-party, reliable sources. I expanded this article back in 2016 and it went through a successful GAN at that time, but I am uncertain if it is really notable anymore. Aoba47 (talk) 19:13, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete or redirect to Sugababes#Merchandise. Article does not satisfy WP:GNG, fails WP:PRODUCT, and is a case of WP:PROMO. A review of the sources and the result is rather clear:
- Refs 4, 7, 12, 14, 18, 19, 21, 23, 26 are unreliable, non-secondary, promo sources. They are used to provide information regarding the perfume's ingredients, price, and merchandise stuff, which is WP:PROMO and WP:PRICE
- Refs 5, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, 16, 20 are not flagged as unreliable, but they are not independent, non-trivial sources, which fail WP:GNG criterion of independent sources (
advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent
) - The critical reception section is rather cherry-picking and puffery ("Easy Lifestyle" and Mirror are not generally reliable). Single-quotes from Glamour also do not help with substance.
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I actually closed this as delete but want to relist it for further eyes. To be perfectly honest I find HD's analysis of the sourcing to be persuasive. With this being a listed "Good Article", I would like a little bit more input personally before pulling the trigger. (Not that GA's get any special safety net, more I think unnecessary issues can be avoided by relisting in this particular case.)

- Delete -- while there are certainly celebrity perfumes that do receive significant news coverage this is not one of them. Did not find any additional sources. Gnomingstuff (talk) 01:54, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - GA or not, this perfume does not appear to have recieved significant coverage. I fully agree with HD's analysis of the sources. ƒirefly ( t · c ) 10:21, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
