Fails WP:NCREATIVE, and tagged with questionable notability since 2016. Of the existing sources, most are promotional links to things like her Patreon, or a game she did art for. The only independent coverage was inclusion of her art in a few clickbait listicles. I didn't find significant coverage in my BEFORE, just more listicles that mainly served to link to the subject's website. The article does get 5k views a month, but I think that is an artifact of folks searching for her porn. Bottom line: popular, but not notable.

Comment Ah, now that I've filed this, I see that there was a previous deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sakimichan, whose outcome was no consensus. The sources Vanamonde found (back in 2016) were the same ones I found in my before, I think most of them too poor quality to count towards notability.

Keep the article itself could be better. It is true that she fails WP:CREATIVE. But she passes GNG. The Google news hits are mostly gaming and pop culture blog mentions. However with those results are items like this short Cosmopolitan write up, a very brief mention in the NY Times, this middling Japanese "news site" and this peru.com item. I am on page 17 of the search results, and they are all related to the subject, although the quality varies a lot. Coverage is in many languages. The very consistent and frequent republication of her images is to some degree significant coverage of her work. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 18:27, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This Daily Dot mention is decent.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 18:49, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This artist is well known, with a large following. For those who follow her art, she is known for more that just her erotic art. In December 2017 Deviantart gave sakimichan recondition for her community involvement and engagement ("...producing a plethora of tutorials, aiding others in character development.") Deviousness Award. — Preceding unsigned comment added by M.I.S. (talk • contribs) 17:52, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - per WP:NCREATIVE. There are many coverages in independent reliable sources like this in People (magazine), this in The Daily Dot, this in BuzzFeed News in addition to the coverages mentioned by ThatMontrealIP. KartikeyaS343 (talk) 06:46, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
