The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was Delete. This is a mixture of a WP:SNOW closure, a speedy deletion as an unambiguous hoax, and a speedy deletion as a page created by a block-evading editor. (Having looked at some deleted articles, I can say with total confidence that his is another Katrina Villegas sockpuppet.) JamesBWatson (talk) 11:55, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

PROD was removed by author, who may have a COI. Although she has had a number of roles, none of them are major, and combined with a lack of reliable coverage, I don't think she's notable. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 10:01, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If this is a Katrina sock, Katrina seems really desperate to keep some version of this up. Dlohcierekim 07:58, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I would say that it was an autobiography, but she's only 11 years old; thus, it's probably written by her agent, which is arguably even worse. Regardless, she seems to lack lacks notability, though I guess English-language sources might be difficult to come by. In that case, the article can be recreated with native-language sources that properly demonstrate notability. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 10:43, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment As well they should. However, it is a bit more difficult to establish notability with a child actress who is relatively obscure in the English speaking world. I see plenty of credits listed and awards won. But are those credits actually notable roles and are the awards actually notable awards. At the moment, I will retain my delete vote on the basis of failing WP:ENT and WP:GNG as well as being WP:COI. I am willing to change if somebody demonstrates notability.

  • Delete as a hoax. The "official website" doesn't exist. The twitter and facebook accounts don't exist. The IMDB page links to a guy named Randy Burt. The first 7 references are all non-existent links. The reference claiming her as a Yahoo child star of the year winner actually specifies Xyriel Manabat as the winner of the award (much of the content from this article seems to be copied from there as well). The only non-wikipedia results of a google search of the name were about a basketball player from Niger. --JamesMoose (talk) 21:10, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Concurring with previous poster in this being a hoax, rather than spam, as I indicated in my earlier vote, which I have now stricken. I have tagged the article as being a hoax. Safiel (talk) 22:19, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete G5 probably applies. Please see User:dlohcierekim/working/x for background. Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Katrina Villegas. The pattern of the article is the same as those already deleted from her socks. The "Filipina child actress". The great looking sourcing that does not pan out. The "and is a member of Christian". The eponymous article. The accomplisments that would be more fitting an adult veteran actor rather than a child. There may be a FaceBook page with someone else's picture on it as in a recent iterattion. One iteration had a great looking webpage as a primary source. (She is creating these new socks and new articles faster than I can keep up with them.) ((This iteration has a whole new list of accomplshments, so she is morphing the articles. )) Dlohcierekim 07:52, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I'm at work and must stop now. If someone should like to consider re-opening the SPI page. Dlohcierekim 07:54, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
