The article is based on the subject's personal website and a re-hash of one of her videos. I can find no indication that reliable coverage exists on her. There is this article from the unreliabel news provider The Tab. The article, a copy paste job from one of it's sources, could be speedily deleted under G12 but I thought I'd take this to AfD over the subject's falling short of WP:GNG/WP:ENTERTAINER Modussiccandi (talk) 16:13, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete fails GNG, No independent coverage whats so ever. The subject in question is not notable enough to have a standalone page on Wikipedia. - FitIndia Talk Admin on Commons 17:12, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

- Comment: Thanks for this. These pieces are both clearly significant coverage in reliable sources. Independence seems to be the problem: I think the BBC piece is too heavily based off direct quotations from the subject to be regarded as independent, while the Times article seems to be just fine. Overall, this still doesn't seem enough for clear-cut notable; though these pieces point to there being potential for it in the future. Modussiccandi (talk) 19:51, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete per past outcomes (we tend to be strict on YouTubers), and WP:GNG ( she hasn't really done anything notable, other than to be another WP:UPANDCOMING teenager). Bearian (talk) 19:37, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
