This article is a recreation of an article that was deleted for failing WP:GNG. It is somewhat difficult to see that anything has changed since then, so it still seems to fail WP:GNG. BenTels (talk) 18:08, 22 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 18:18, 22 July 2012 (UTC) Weak keep O'Shaughnessy seems to be barely notable. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 00:06, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per previous AfD. A lot of secondary coverage, but I was unable to find anything significant that is unrelated to his love affair with Rihanna. WP:NOTINHERITED. Cavarrone (talk) 18:29, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Weak keep - we have kept less notable models, see Articles for deletion/Kahlen Rondot (2nd nomination). That being said, about equal numbers of models' articles are kept or deleted.  He has had some press, as a  boxer and a model, so I think he's just barely notable. Bearian (talk) 20:08, 25 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep - There are many references listed that tell of the individuals former boxing career and recorded success (from reliable sources) in the field. As well as growing coverage in regards to his modelling career. The individual has a large fan following and much press coverage under his name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Malik_Shabazz#Re:_Dudley_Deletion. For details of the discussion. I have seen much less known models on wikipedia and far less reliable resources. Ugochinyerem (talk) 00:18, 26 July 2012 (GMT)


 * Keep He has more than “trivial” mention in articles, i.e. editorial pieces made on him. Fairly reliable resources are present. BBC, evening standard, telegraph… as well as independent sources. Not presumed, published interviews are included in sources. Improvement and difference from previous article although could be expanded. The subject’s notability is not temporary as coverage goes beyond the music video, the subject is a model in his own right. Mizziman (talk) 20:34, 25 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep he has a breadth of coverage and a huge fan base. Much more known and recognizable than other models listed on wiki, eg.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andre_Ziehe. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.122.187.10 (talk) 01:37, 28 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep and clean up -- He seems to be notable enough after reading everything, the article is decent, however it could be improved grammatically. unsigned
