 * Delete- a search doesn't come up with any reliable source coverage.--Rusf10 (talk) 01:31, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete for failing WP:GNG. Found just one reference, an interview in atlantablackstar.com.  Article relies heavily upon her own Youtube promotional channel "Jules Uncut". Blue Riband► 13:56, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep I added additional citations to the article. I'd never heard of her before so I did a search on Google News and saw many hits. I learned Slim Girl is a global brand and currently has a strong online presences as well as physical locations in the US, Nigeria, London and Qatar. She has received international attention for the success of her shapewear, lingerie and swimwear lines. There has been significant interest in Richards as a person, and there are many examples of independent secondary shources publishing articles with significant discussion about her life. Passes WP:GNG for significant discussion in secondary sources. Lonehexagon (talk) 16:28, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment- The new sourcing added to the article are not reliable sources. Atlanta Black Star describes itself as a narrative company (whatever that means), but looking at its website it appears that people can submit articles to them and they will publish it. Another source pulse.ng is questionable at best. xoNecole.com  is another website that takes submissions. There is not enough information available about Women.NG to determine if that is reliable either. What I'm getting at is, how do we know that these "articles" being used as sources haven't been submitted by the subject herself or her pr person?--Rusf10 (talk) 23:01, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete or move to user space She and her brands have a social media presence, but I take Rusf10's point about Black Star. More to the point is what I'm not seeing, like coverage in  The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Atlanta Daily World, Essence (magazine) or of her company in the business press. I do see that she has a book coming out (pub. date 26 June,) writers and their publicists often create Wikipedia articles as pre-publication publicity.  Suggest that we move this to user space while we see whether the book draws sufficient attention to make the author notable.E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:55, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
