2 independent sources: both from 2015-16, and both about specific instances of domestic abuse, not the subject's career. Plus the "$2 mill to fuck Justin Bieber" story which has had no lasting coverage. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 18:56, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep per Kbabej. Not fantastic sources, but enough for GNG. Thanks; I apparently can't find good sources on pornography. Ovinus (talk) 16:14, 12 August 2022 (UTC) Delete – No indication of significant coverage. Also noting that there are some BLP problems with the article, e.g. something about attempted sex with a minor sourced to Gay Star News. I've removed this last bit.

 * Keep. His domestic incidents have been covered by PinkNews, a green-level RS on WP:RSP (here). Queerty covered a marketing stunt where he offered Justin Bieber $2m to film with him (here). Bieber responded to the offer (here). Rapid then went on to make a Justin Bieber porn parody (here). Rapid's announcement he was retiring from porn was covered by The Gay UK, where he's called "prolific" (here). In the first ever Pornhub awards, Rapid was awarded "Top Gay Group Performer" (here). He is one of Men.com's most searched names (here). In Supersex: Sexuality, Fantasy, and the Superhero, Anna Peppard covers Rapid four times (snippets here). Observatoriog calls him "one of the most beloved personalities in the world of international gay porn" (here). --Kbabej (talk) 10:02, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Already discussed here: I keep for the same reasons. Keckel (talk) 11:49, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
