Doesn't meet WP:NAUTHOR. The sources used in the article are of a low quality or primary and are of little use for establishing notability. This was recently published in Huff Post but based on this it is hardly independent as it was 'secured' by her PR agency. Someone at the PR agency also authored the article (see here for details). I've searched factiva and google books for better coverage but haven't found anything. SmartSE (talk) 21:13, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment: I was initially stumped by the title. Had no idea she was branding her name that way. Anyway, her real name, Thitinart Na Pattalung (ฐิตินาถ ณ พัทลุง), is much more familiar. Try searching with it or variant spellings Thitinart Napattalung and Na Phatthalung. I think it's quite likely she passes the GNG; the top Google results show several interviews on national free TV. (Haven't checked details yet though.) --Paul_012 (talk) 21:12, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep: per WP:GNG - there is significant coverage in reliable sources independent from the subject. They need not be in English. As Paul012 said, She has been featured on Thai Free TV and in major Thai newspapers (Thai Rath, Matichon, Manager, The Nation), not just recently but repeatedly since about 2010. Perhaps the article should be moved to her real name, if the pseudonym is not significantly more established than the real name. --RJFF (talk) 13:00, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
