Does not meet WP:GNG, insufficient significant coverage in reliable sources outside of the context of The Real Housewives of Miami; the sole such source currently cited is [1], a local publication of dubious reliability. I would suggest that we redirect to that article. Searching online, I wasn't able to find coverage other than trivial pieces in tabloids, although given the nature of the subject it's possible that something more useful may have been crowded out in search results. signed, Rosguill talk 03:38, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I did the best i can to find sources relating to Lea Black. I don't understand why the article Lea Black is about to be deleted? Tell me what do I have to do to improve this? Ceedub88 05:47, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Some subjects just aren't notable, even if you did your best. At the end of the day, we have to depend on what's available in reliable, independent sources. If we don't have at least 3 or 4 solid examples of significant coverage of a subject in their own right, we have no business creating a standalone article for them. That having been said, reliable sources that collectively fall short of GNG may still be usable to expand The Real Housewives of Miami. signed, Rosguill talk 14:52, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

When you say "Independent" you mean websites with real sources that you trust, not the ones that are filled with fake information and fake sites with tabloids? Ceedub88 02:50, 21 August 2020 2020 (UTC)

"WP:Independent sources" means that the source isn't written by the subject herself, or someone associated with her. Anything published by the producers of the show, for example, wouldn't be independent. Nor would her LinkedIn profile, because she writes that herself. Interviews generally aren't considered independent, either. A website like Pikastar might be independent (or it might just publish info from her publicist), but even if it is, it's probably not a "WP:Reliable source". Sources used to establish notability must be both independent and reliable. pburka (talk) 18:33, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So where could I find a reliable source that was written by her or her publicist? Perhaps maybe can we ask her herself? Ceedub88 16:38, 24 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
