The subject of the article is an artist with a social media following who has published two colouring books. WP:GNG is not met as far as I can see, nor does she meet the requirements of WP:ARTIST. There is no significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources; the only secondary source cited is an interview. I have found one additional article with her advice on social media and mental health. Although she's clearly talented, I think this might be a case of WP:TOOSOON.

 * Comment - It is problematic that four of the five citations are to book sales sites where you can buy her coloring books. The fifth citation looks dubious, but I'm not familiar with "Stuff" - it looks like a blog, but I'm not sure if it is reliable or not. Is it the same as Stuff (website)?

 * Yes, that's correct. Stuff is a reliable source; this particular article is an interview published in the Sunday magazine of the Sunday Star Times with a decent amount of supplemental biographical material (so arguably secondary, rather than primary, having had a read-through of WP:INTERVIEW). It's only one source, though, and I wouldn't have said it meets the threshold of WP:GNG. When I searched for additional sources, I was only able to find that one additional article on Medium (which I don't think is a reliable source). Chocmilk03 (talk) 18:10, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree that one piece in Stuff it's not enough to meet GNG. I'm going to remove the book seller sites from the article. Netherzone (talk) 18:14, 28 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete the lack of WP:RS makes this a clear GNG fail. Possibly (talk) 18:16, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete one lone sources is never enough to pass GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:49, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - I can't find coverage about her in RS's, only a lot of things she herself posted to social media and the like online. Does not meet our WP:GNG criteria. Netherzone (talk) 20:03, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Couldn't really find any significant coverage of her. Her (very meager) entry at HarperCollins pretty much just lists her Instagram accounts, Facebook account, Tumblr account, Twitter account, Snapchat account, and YouTube channel. Doesn't pass WP:GNG or WP:ARTIST. Looks like a lot of self-promotion; she seems to be very online. ExRat (talk) 10:02, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete I note that the article got deleted on 11 August 2015 following a WP:PROD. The concern at the time was: "Orphan article, lacks significant coverage in reliable sources, no evidence of notability." That's still true today. I've had a poke around the deleted version and there was one source that might have been useful, although I'm not sure what the Viva Magazine was (a lifestyle supplement? the link is now dead):  Schwede 66  11:41, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment. Should also be noted that the creator of the article, Jazzthornton, claims to be the subject's best friend and that Webb approved the content of the article. Possible WP:PSCOI. ExRat (talk) 18:08, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
