Comment: Most of the sources are not reliable: YouTube, blogs, press releases, Forbes (see WP:FORBESCON). Others are interviews or affiliated with her which are primary sources and not independent so cannot be used to establish notability. Using such sources also leads to a non-neutral article because they are based largely on what she or those affiliated say/have written. S0091 (talk) 16:44, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: I'd need to see more sources from reputable publications (see WP:RSP) before I accept this submission. Crunchydillpickle🥒 (talk) 19:05, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
