WP:BLP of a journalist and podcaster, not properly referenced as passing notability standards for journalists or podcasters. As always, journalists are not "inherently" notable just because content they created exists, and the notability test hinges on the reception of significant third-party coverage about them and their work -- but this is referenced almost entirely to primary sources that were self-published by companies or organizations she was directly affiliated with (e.g. documentary films that she appeared in "sourced" to their own presence on a streaming platform rather than media coverage about the films, podcast directories, etc.) or glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage that isn't about her (e.g. her name getting briefly mentioned in coverage whose primary subject is the celebrities who were on her podcast rather than her). There's only one footnote here, #6, that actually represents coverage about her in a WP:GNG-worthy source, and that isn't enough by itself. Bearcat (talk) 13:33, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: BBC ref is solid, rest are in sources of iffy reliability. Most coverage I find is in tabloids or other websites mostly describing her ample chest. There seems to have been a documentary on Channel 4 about her struggles with body image and large breasts, but most coverage is not in RS, more focused on her chest.

  I feel if we had at least one other decent source about her, we'd be at notability. I'm surprised more media hasn't picked up on her message of positivity and acceptance. Oaktree b (talk) 14:45, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Only other sources I find are in Nigerian media [1] and [2], which are trivial coverage. Oaktree b (talk) 14:51, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
