Crackhead Barney

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Subject of biography has low encyclopedic value and fails general notability guidelines with only a handful of sources and a social networking video channel. AfdBarney (talk) 23:39, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep Little of the nomination statement is relevant to our notability guidelines. The subject passes the basic criteria for a person to be notable (significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject) with profiles in Paper Mag, Inverse, The Independent, etc. Hameltion (talk &#124; contribs) 17:28, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
 * None of the basic sources identify crackhead barney by name, in fact, she is completely anonymous to the public at large. At a minimum, these sources need to identify her to be considered reliable. Most of these sources are primary sources not secondary, or anonymous posts to youtube. One of the sources you posted The Independent, raises WP:BLP concerns relative to Alec Baldwin and his right to privacy after she followed him into a restaurant onto private property and harassed him while he was purchasing a cup of coffee.

 * Keep - I'm seeing enough to satisfy WP:BIO. In addition to what's already in the article, The Root, the Independent, NME (both reporting on the Piers Morgan appearance), Hyperallergic covering a performance, interview magazine, Vice video, the Independent again (via Yahoo -- quick search didn't return the original), etc. But even if it were borderline, I'm not going to !vote delete in a nom by a user whose account was created just for that purpose. PS: whether sources identify her by her real name is 100% irrelevant to notability or reliability (which are explained at WP:N and WP:RS). &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 00:03, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think that she has enough notability to be here on Wikipedia. Once this article acquires more than five cited sources, some of which can include what brought up, then the article can increase its credibility and relevance. I would like for this article to mention that Crackhead Barney was on a  Savanah Hernandez video, if there is notable coverage for such.  Mungo Kitsch   (talk)  05:05, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
