The result was redirect to
RuPaul's Drag Race (season 6). Numerically, a close call, but considering the previous AfD, the amount of socking, and the fact that arguments for keeping failed to explain how this meets
WP:N, I'm going to revert this back to the redirect from the last AfD. --

Comment - and a recent AfD led to the creation of the redirect. Pretty pointless to have an editor insist they can override an AfD consensus.

Keep That consensus was too small to make a clear decision on - literally only 3 people voted. The amount of sources, the amount of media appearances and the amount of fans and following is THE EXACT SAME of most if not all of the other RPDR queens with pages. The truly pointless thing is to have this afd at all because there is no reason this queen shouldn't have a page. — Preceding

Keep per GNG. There's already content about projects other than RPDR. Article should be expanded and improved -- would make a nice Collaboration of the Month for WikiProject RuPaul's Drag Race. ---

Keep, per above and because subject is notable. There are numerous secondary sources and the article is well referenced.

Redirect- I'm not putting in bold because I haven't done another BEFORE but it appears there's no new element to suggest notability since we were here about 6 months ago (when I did do a full BEFORE). At that time there wasn't coverage about Carrion there was coverage about Ru Paul's Drag Race where Carrion was mentioned. As such I'm not seeing any new evidence to suggest that it shouldn't have the same outcome as with the first nomination. Best,

And I should make clear I'm not seeing notability from the song that they sung which appears to be the only substantive change. Best,

I've now done enough looking to suggest that notability hasn't been established since the last AfD and so it should continue to be a redirect. Best,

Delete. Non-notable individual. I'm a little concerned about the coverage for RPDR in general - it seems we have a few very passionate fans of the show who are very hard at work covering every aspect of the show here on Wikipedia. A lot of it is
WP:FANCRUFT, which is all well and good at
rupaulsdragrace.fandom.com, but it doesn't belong here. As well as the contestants, there have recently been some articles for individual episodes created which I'm pretty sure don't meet the notability guidelines. I'm also a little concerned about the wikiproject. I know
this isn't quite
WP:CANVASSING, but it could certainly skew the discussion and lead to
WP:VOTESTACKING. --

Woodensuperman, I understand your concerns about canvassing, but simply posting links to AfD pages at a relevant WikiProject should not be problematic, especially when WikiProject RuPaul's Drag Race members have been perfectly willing to vote merge/redirect in past discussions (see
example1 and
example2). I think you should actually assume good faith and welcome editors most familiar with the subjects to participate in the ongoing discussions, thanks. ---

I'll also add that this is not someone who was just on the show and didn't have a career afterwards. The person was on at least three TV shows, in a movie, and has been in music videos. I'll admit that I do think there is too much information on her time on Drag Race; we don't need to record that she won a sewing challenge. But it's flat out wrong to say that she isn't notable.
