Article lacks in-depth coverage in independent sources and does not meet WP:GNG. The sources are mostly gossip-blogs or PR sites. The article repeatedly cites which is a non-WP:RS Jamiebuba (talk) 10:28, 18 May 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, CycloneYoris talk! 01:15, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi Jamiebuba, thanks for reviewing Zita Sampson Article. As you know as per section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, all the sources are genuine and reliable. The subject is notable enough in his category, and got significant coverages not pass mentions. Under Notable People guideline, it is mentioned The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times, Zita Sampson has received award as well as coverage for her initiatives for people. I will be happy improving it showing more reliable sources. Thanks MoshoodBello (talk) 13:48, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete — aside from not being notable, I think that this is also a paid job. If it is, please, see this guideline on paid editing and conflict of interest. I would also suggest that you create your articles through the Article for Creation. Best, Reading Beans (talk) 05:49, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep but WP:TNT. This actor has won what is acknowledged in WP:RS as a notable award. The article is just very unencyclopedically written (melodramatic hard-to-follow gossip-magazine writing style; no attention to WP:MOS issues like MOS:SECTIONCAPS; random capitalisation, etc.), which is hard to get past, but surely a cinephile copy editor is out there who can clean it up. -  Julietdeltalima   (talk)  00:21, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting after recent comment about the notability of the award on which mant Keeps have based their opinion on. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 04:26, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets WP:ANYBIO criterion 1 on the basis of the award cited in the article. CT55555 (talk) 02:57, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep but WP:TNT There is (somewhat) the sourcing present, and the award won means that WP:ANYBIO is met. If this is closed as keep, I would be willing to do the re-write to fix the prose issues. JML1148 (talk &#124; contribs) 07:20, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment — I want to believe the above users made their !votes based on the content found in the article; but, the contents (award) is hoax. This is the page of the 16th Africa Movie Academy Awards (2020). There you will find out that there was no mention of her name in the list of nominees talk-more of being the winner. I also want to implore users to check the list of Nigerian reliable sources whenever an article is put up for deletion; with a closer look, you will find out that no reliable source there is cited in the article just mere blog and run-of-the-mill magazines. So, the closing admin (or whoever) a proper investigation is needed before closing. Best, Reading Beans (talk) 21:56, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment, the source used to support her getting the award indicates that she was nominated for the award but did not win it. I have no interest in actresses, so I'm not !voting, but with no reflection on Ms Sampson or this award, I'd add the caution that the awards industry in general attracts hype, exaggeration, money and influence, and it's far from unknown for people to claim awards they haven't got, or stack up impressive lists of completely meaningless awards. Awards should always be carefully scrutinised. Elemimele (talk) 07:32, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. The article incorrectly states that the actress won the 2020 award for the best supporting actress, but the attached reference only states that she was nominated for the award.   Unfortunately, that source appears to be a non-RS pure promotion site attached to a site used for MP3 piracy and scammy internet promotions.  When you look at the sources attached to the 16th Africa Movie Academy Awards article, none of them mention this actress.  So there appears to be some fabrication here.
