A BLP, supported by database entries (caution when reviewing - NSFW) unreliable sources. Doing a BEFORE was complicated by the existence of a number of famous people of this name, but I didn't find any reliable, independent sources giving significant coverage.

All references used in this article are reliable (or at-least have at one point been considered reliable) it firstly uses an article from AVN themselves and the remainder are from the same website used in the Manuel Ferrara page (the internet adult film database) (LaVOZSA)

Per this discussion at RSN, it seems pretty clear that the community does not consider IADB to be reliable - certainly not for a BLP. Mentions in databases don't really amount to significant coverage for the purposes of establishing notability, even if it were reliable. Celebsagewiki.com definitely does not sound like a reliable source for use on a BLP. So we are left with AVN publishing a press release about themselves giving an award to someone, which is not independent of the event. In other words - no sources that are independent, reliable, and give the subject significant depth of coverage. Girth Summit _(blether) 13:15, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as there is a lack of significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources so that WP:GNG is not passed, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 01:34, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
