Damon Baker

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

A 21-year old fashion photographer. Only able to find a few interviews. No reliable, independent references that mention anything. References in the article are interviews, photos or primary sources. Prod was contested for unknown reasons. Bgwhite (talk) 05:22, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Unenthusiastic keep. An underwhelming little article based on gushy little articles. The nomination says: No reliable, independent references that mention anything. Well, multiple sources that I suppose would be taken seriously in the fashion racket do verifiably present him as worth profiling. An alarming quotation from one of these "references": Vibing off vanity, working tirelessly to inject more sex, glamour and spice into the fashion world, twenty-year -old photographer Damon Baker is the [sic] ostentatious talent, proving age ain’t nothin but a number. I suppose that this counts as a compliment within the insane world of fashion, and hope that a WP article isn't being used as a vanity vibrator. -- Hoary ("Will it last, and is it cheap?") 08:58, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Soft delete - Not notable yet. IMO, he sounds like the latest proclaimed child prodigy and as soon as someone else younger with an equal talent comes along, it will probably be "bye Damon, who were you again?" One day, maybe, but right now, no substantial or serious coverage, and no evidence yet of ongoing coverage. Mabalu (talk) 10:55, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete -- NN fashion photgrapher. If this is not the case, I would have expected some one to speak up for the article, but despite being twice relisted, no one has, apart from an initial half-hearted supporting comment.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:01, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete without prejudice to future article - Current article does not support notability and I can't find any other evidence of it, but feels like he's on the cusp of reaching it. If more WP:RS reviewing his work show up, may support an article.BennyHillbilly (talk) 06:51, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
