The result was keep. In the light of discovered sources, this leans towards a keep. However, if anyone were to challenge them, it could be renominated with arguments refuting those sources. (non-admin closure) — Yash talk stalk 06:42, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a promotional article about a person who is successful in promoting himself but is not otherwise notable. All of the Google hits just show a woozle effect. The references are not reliable sources. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:59, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7, where he was a housemate. Blogging itself isn't enough to establish notability unless the blogger or blog has been covered in reliable sources, and/or has won an award. From what I can find online, there isn't much coverage about him that doesn't have to do with PBB (indeed, one of the only significant sources I could find is from the ABS-CBN-affiliate website Push). While the aforementioned Push article states that he won some kind of award "Influencer of the Year", I don't think that's enough to establish notability. However, he is a possible search term, and thus I don't see harm in redirecting his article to the PBB season he participated in. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:39, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Change to keep per the sources mentioned below. There seems to be just enough to establish notability, though the article could use some improvement. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:21, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep "Notability" or being "notable" is subjective. Assuming but not conceding to the loose definition (as may be inferred from above comments) that notability is simply recognizability, that standard puts in shade thousands of articles of people who have no media mileage. These articles include those about clerics who may not have enough newspaper mentions but are still important to the organization or in certain cases, for historical archiving. Nevertheless, subject personality has, in fact, enjoyed a certain level of media attention before and after his stint as housemate of Pinoy Big Brother. Since no metric has been suggested either, we should recognize that subject personality has more than four hundred thousand subscribers on Youtube at the time of writing of this comment and has at least appeared on a number of television shows in the Philippines.
