Non-notable fashion designer who lacks reliable sources. Page was nominated for deletion minutes ago then unilaterally removed by page author, who justified doing so in edit summary by adding YouTube, non-reliable sources. Fails WP:CREATIVE. Cabrils (talk) 06:56, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
- This commentator has no scholarly expertise on fashion. It is clear this is racially and sexually motivated. This fashion designer has an award-winning short film, multiple museum exhibitions, and a painting made by top-artist Mickalene Thomas.
- I have never seen an artist with a museum exhibition described as “not important.” This is clearly bias based deletion. ~2026-57717-7 (talk) 07:00, 27 January 2026 (
