Devon (actress)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I know "all hotties are notable" and porncruft has a loyal following on Wikipedia but only one of the 27 cited sources here comes close to WP:RS, and that's a namecheck, saying that the subject of the article once dated her. We don't even have a real name. There is nothing about her other than kayfabe. Guy (Help!) 22:50, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete The overcoverage of pornographic actresses is one of the most complained about problems of Wikipedia. It is articles like this one that make it possible to argue it is a problem with Wikipedia itself, and not a reflection of what we value in our culture that some people think we should change in valuing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:55, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * , sure, and a million sportsmans in Wikipedia (with blissful achievements) are not a problem. Men from Uganda (known only in his country), only one time took the 90th place at the World Cup - encyclopedic, but well known in many countries awarded porn actress - not. OK. And a million poets with two books/brochures, million mayors without achievements, etc. This is just... stupidity. Profession is a profession, who are you to remove well known in many countries awarded porn actress and leave the mayor of a some town or regional sportsmans without achievements? Do you want changes in encyclopedicism? Ok, but fairly, in many areas/topics, for example: sportsmans, poets and similar, mayors......... etc etc. Then I will support it. For now you are an ordinary troll who unjustly harassing for one discipline.  Subtropical -man  (talk / en-2 ) 18:47, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
 * It's clear: meets of WP:PORNBIO and WP:GNG. Always, blindly you voted for removal. User:Johnpacklambert, now you showed your intentions, you are a troll wanting to delete articles about erotica in a mass way. Please - stop trolling.  Subtropical -man  (talk / en-2 ) 18:25, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. While I'm not a fan of porn or porn stars, actually reading WP:RS shows that enough of the references do satisfy WP:RS to show that she satisfies (no pun intended) WP:GNG. Ross-c (talk) 15:11, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Which sources would you say meet RS? Guy (Help!) 08:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep - Per above. Sources show it meets WP:GNG crit. Gidev the Dood(Talk) 19:42, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep - She won an individual main "acting" award, is a member of the AVN Hall of Fame and on top of that the article is well sourced. All this combined clearly satisfies Notability. -- fdewaele, 2 May 2018, 18:33 CET.
 * Keep - meets of WP:PORNBIO and WP:GNG. Subtropical -man  (talk / en-2 ) 18:24, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List_of_members_of_the_AVN_Hall_of_Fame. The PORNBIO SNG has been largely discredited; the consensus at AfDs in the past year has been that, absent sources, the articles are deleted or redirected. The sources in the article consist of online databases, industry PR materials, interviews, etc. Not suitable for writing an NPOV bio.


 * The content is largely trivia, as in: "She has four cats names Bouses, Bruiser, Russian and Seven, and Devon" (!). Compare with Articles for deletion/Sascha (actor) which closed as redirect to List of members of the AVN Hall of Fame. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:56, 3 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Redirect non trivial sourced information can be mentioned on the list. Spartaz Humbug! 18:25, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep as per sources on Google as well as those in the article, Not sure about PORNBIO but certainly meets GNG. – Davey 2010 Talk 18:26, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
