Fails WP:GNG/WP:ARTIST. Largely written by a (near) SPA who has, i suspect, a close connection to the articles subject, since Kiki Valentine features prominently in a blog with the same name as the main contributor. Promotional tone, unsourced claims, namedropping. Kleuske (talk) 07:59, 3 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • revisiting. local political activist with a little coverage in local media. note that in the NYTimes story on getting space set aside for breastfeeding in city hall, she appears only a poster child, well, poster mommy at the news conference, which is in the local news section of the Times. fails WP:SIGCOV.E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:17, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note that User:Kristine4president is sort of a SPA. She has made only 198 edits in 7 years. Her 2nd edit created this page. It was immediately prodded. She created 60% of the content on the page, and almost all the rest was added by a series of IP accounts in Brooklyn, where Kiki Valentine lives.

  • Weak Delete. I didn't do any searching on my own (hence the weak modifier), but looking at the sources in the article, this fails WP:NBIO. The DNAInfo, Daily News, and NY Times articles are all about causes she's been involved in, and mention her name, but they're not actually about her. The Politico, Nat Law Review, and Courthouse News pieces don't even mention her. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:39, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
