Appears to fail WP:NMODEL and based on the poor sourcing (newsny.net is some sort of odd blog, Medium, Hufforbes(?!?) and primary sources) WP:PROMO. SportingFlyer T·C 21:41, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article fails WP:NMODEL and WP:GNG. The sources are either quite weak (ex. a Medium post and Newsny) or her own website, which does nothing to establish notability. Lots of people also attend charity events or get magazine covers, so none of that by itself makes her stand out as a notable model or fashion creator. As to the puff nature of this article, I say WP:NOPROMO. Newshunter12 (talk) 02:06, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article has significantly detailed references such as Medium and News NY. There are similar articles on Wikipedia with few or no issues, see pages of Arika Sato and Sofia Nikitchuk. Instead of deletion, we can invite other editors to edit the page by putting a BLP sources or notability tag on the page. The article can be shortened to remove sections of personal life and the biography section can be trimmed. As for the puff nature of the article, it can be cleaned up.

Medium articles are not reliable, since that site hosts user-generated content. News NY does not appear to be a reliable website either. In terms of the other articles and how they relate to AfDs, see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. There's simply nothing out there about her which definitively passes WP:GNG.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete Absolutely no notability whatsoever. Promo for no reason. I’m about sick of these lost cause articles. There’s nothing to save!!! Trillfendi (talk) 16:32, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Can see articles on google search. Looks notable. Additional citations could be added by community editors. Draft could be improved upon though, for instance the following sentence should be removed - In 2018, Symonds attended the 20th annual AmFAR gala in New York City and the New York City Ballet.

Can you please link to any articles which might pass WP:GNG? SportingFlyer T·C 23:34, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Links like Al Watan, Emirates Voice and Ounousa help meet WP:GNG for the article. Sora Sailor (talk) 19:48, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
