Sources seem to be proper in respect of WP:RS. Multiple reliable sources make the subject notable enough - Notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ksnsakib (talk • contribs) 18:34, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Except none of the sources are actually reliable. Praxidicae (talk) 18:35, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 3 of the sources got Wiki articles about them. If the sources are reliable and notable enough to get own Wiki articles, they should be reliable enough to believe in. --Ksnsakib (talk) 18:43, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * No, that's not how WP:RS works. We have articles about Daily Mail and Breitbart, neither of which are reliable. is a press release, this is paid for black hat seo, this is ugen promotional cruft from a PR agency and is an interview Praxidicae (talk) 18:45, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * List of largest Internet companies this article is very much sourced from Yahoo! Finance. If this has been a proven credible source for other major articles, how can it be a press release? this is definitely NOT paid for black hat seo, and Interview's fall under the criterea for WP:RS  --Ksnsakib (talk) 19:11, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Disrupt is not a reliable source - period. It is a pay-for-publication that masquerades as legitimate journalism and the Yahoo piece literally says it's a press release. But thanks for playing. Praxidicae (talk) 19:18, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * @, interviews aren’t bad but they are of no real value to WP:GNG because they aren’t independent of the subject. @, I honestly wish this collaborative project made it mandatory for all articles on businesspeople/entrepreneurs & internet celebrities to pass through the afc process. Celestina007 (talk) 21:58, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * @, Look at this article Nick Stracener. I see a Disrupt article as reference.--Ksnsakib (talk) 12:51, 15 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete — insufficient coverage in reliable sources for a standalone article at the moment. Celestina007 (talk) 21:58, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete insufficient ly reliable sourcing.  DGG ( talk ) 05:58, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep These sources have been proven credible in other articles earlier.--Ksnsakib (talk) 12:51, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete based on current sources. The text Based in the city of Amersfoort, Netherlands, Hejar studied physical therapy and graduated in 2015 at the Amsterdam School of Health Professions. Although he loved his work, Hejar always knew he appears word-for-word on both Yahoo! Finance and Disrupt magazine. That's not right. The daily herald article is actually by Get News. Here's another "article" from Get News: Payless 4 Plumbing Inc. Offers Drain Cleaning Services in Bell Gardens. The Algemeen Dagblad article is an interview, not strictly independent from the subject, but as that's the only source we have that isn't paid for it couldn't establish notability anyway. A single source is never enough. It is very much an article about two people that Algemeen Dagblad knows aren't notable, but they found they had an interesting story to tell so they interview them. There is no reason to ever expect a follow-up or any other news agency to do the same. Also, that article doesn't even mention TikTok. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 18:27, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Another run-of-the-mill non-notable "social media influencer" promotional piece with COI issues. The title is not even capitalized correctly. HᴇʀᴘᴇᴛᴏGᴇɴᴇꜱɪꜱ (talk) 08:17, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails the WP:GNG. gidonb (talk) 05:44, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
