Twila True

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Not seeing any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources, either those in the article or elsewhere online - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:GNG. Run-of-the-mill businessperson. Typical promotional article, created by a WP:SPA. Edwardx (talk) 23:20, 28 March 2022 (UTC) Hello. The article covers reliable sources please check again. Twila True has received awards. I don't know what you meant by independent in-depth coverage but you can see many news and reliable sources there. If anything in there is look like promotional you can remove that information. But removing a whole article is not necessary I think it should be given a chance. If it can be improved please tell me I will do that. She has founded music academy with two Grammy winners it has sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fanny shower (talk • contribs) 06:20, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment - this is independent in-depth coverage in a reliable source that is in the article: Twila True’s Heart is in Two Worlds (Orange County Register, 2015), and this is in-depth coverage in a reliable source of one of the businesses she co-founded that is in the article: 1500 Sound Academy Raises the Volume on Educating Next Generation of Music Creators (Billboard, 2021).

 * There is also more significant and in-depth coverage of her: Wealthy OST woman returns to bring hope to Pine Ridge (Rapid City Journal, 2015), and attention from WWD in 2017 that is mostly an interview. Beccaynr (talk) 15:44, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
 * A reprint of this 2019 Indian Country Today article with significant and in-depth coverage is also in the article: Seasonal complaint: 'Missionaries are on our reservation!', although it is currently used in a limited manner, and there is also this: True Sioux Hope Foundation Tours Pine Ridge (Indian Country Today, 2018) that includes a focus on her. Beccaynr (talk) 16:10, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
 * More significant and in-depth coverage of her: True Sioux Hope Foundation making difference on Pine Ridge (Rapid City Journal, 2017/2018), and this 2016 Orange County Business Journal article is probably in-depth coverage of her, based on the framing and introduction: True Believer, but it is subscription blocked. There is also this article that focuses on her and another business: Polished Perfect nail salons expand while staying true to founder’s toxic-free commitment (Daily Pilot/LA Times, 2016). Beccaynr (talk) 16:28, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - based on the sources in my comments above, WP:BASIC/WP:GNG notability appears supported, although I think the article would benefit from revisions to remove promotional content and to add information from independent and reliable coverage about her.

 * Keep It's all about business and charities, and the coverage is there. I did some work to make the article a bit less promotional, to tone down the citation overkill and to prefer the more reliable sources. Marked a few areas that need work. More editing is needed.

 * Comment Seeing Beccaynr's comments above, I edited it to make it less PROMO. CT55555 (talk) 13:05, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
