Marielle Legair

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Contested PROD, the user's reasoning can be found here.

There's a fair bit of self-promotion going on, but aside from that, I am not actually convinced that the sources provided are enough to establish notability (WP:NBIO). A detailed look at the sources can be found on the article talk page.

Some of the claims are either unverified or fall-short of the what is implied. For example, under the Career section, it says that she's worked with the BBC, but the reference provided is actually a feature on Louise Broni-Mensah (apparently a client), and not Marielle. There is some ambiguity over what the author means by media coverage: some examples (ie. BBC), are about a client rather than Marielle.

The blurb on her personal website says that she has had "media features" in Forbes, Bloomberg, Financial Times and Essence, but there are no links provided and I've been unable to independently verify this. KH-1 (talk) 08:15, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete obvious promotional article that looks like a CV. The cited sources are mostly dependent sources based on customer sites, not based on independent sources. Fails GNG. Graywalls (talk) 09:12, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - this is becoming somewhat of a witchhunt with dubious undertones rather than a balanced view. The cited sources WERE mostly dependent sources based on customer sites after the profile was unfairly edited to make it look that way. You can now see all of the original references which include Red Bull Amaphiko Academy, New York Public Library, PR Week, Black to Business and Black Enterprise. The page is also now linked to from Louise Broni-Mensah Passes GNG. Bamberini8 11:16, 11 February 2021 (AEDT)
 * Delete Social media such as FB, Linked and YouTube cannot be used as a source. The articles written by herself can also not be used. The best source seems to Black Enterprise, but overall there is not significant coverage here to meet WP:NBIO and WP:GNG. To Bamberini8: If you are connected contributor, you must disclose this. Check WP:COI and WP:PAID. There are content on this article that is not available in the sources. For example, how would you know what her GPA was?
