Tobi Bakre

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject of the article clearly fails WP:GNG, WP:BIO and WP:ENTERTAINER, with the article written in a promotional tone. He participated in a popular reality TV show, Big Brother Naija (season 3), but failed to emerge as the winner. With all said, I don't see why we should have a standalone article about him at this time.  NNADI GOOD LUCK  ( Talk &#124; Contribs ) 15:53, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: I think original editor wasn't aware of Wikipedia manual of style. I've made some changes including copy editing and adding new references. Removed promotional content. Looks notable now. Lunar Clock (talk) 17:31, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
 * on what basis are you voting keep? On the basis of Wikipedia manual of style or removing promotional content??  NNADI GOOD LUCK  ( Talk &#124; Contribs ) 17:48, 9 January 2020 (UTC)


 * thank you for inquiry. I found some indepth converage and added few more citations as well. These includes Legit, The Punch and Guardian Nigeria. All of these are notable sources. And yes, I've remove promotional content and did some copy edit too. So yeah, they count as well. Lunar Clock (talk) 17:53, 9 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep: That he didn't win doesn't make him unsuitable for wikipedia, after all Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, DJ Bally, and Miyonse Amosu all have wikipedia pages but didn't win the show too. What matters is what he has been able to achieve. Tobi Bakre is a well known and grounded name in the Nigerian entertainment industry and by all means, notable for Wikipedia.

 * As I noted, the subject of your article fails WP:GNG, WP:ENTERTAINER and WP:BIO. Being just known as you claimed doesn't warrant a standalone article for him at this time.  NNADI GOOD LUCK  ( Talk &#124; Contribs ) 17:54, 9 January 2020 (UTC)


 * I agree with here. Just because others have pages doesn't mean he qualifies automatically. He has to pass through notability check too. Lunar Clock (talk) 17:56, 9 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep - under WP:ENTERTAINER I could see criterion #2 been satisfied as per WP:THREE i’d say there are more than 3 solid references which are are definitely WP:RS. Per WP:GNG in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources are not necessarily met but Wikipedia has a policy whereby multiple sources could be used to substantiate the notability of an individual. In all there’s no real reason for it to be deleted.Celestina007 (talk) 23:38, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
