Upcoming comedian not notable for a page. References from unreliable sources and mostly trivial mentions Runmastery (talk) 07:36, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

- Upcoming?? Nah, he's a blown stand up comedian in Nigeria 75DD (talk) 07:41, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- I understand that Nasty Blaq is a well-known and accomplished comedian in Nigeria, but I still believe the article doesn't meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines. While he has a significant following in Nigeria, the reliable sources required to establish notability are lacking. 2RDD (talk) 06:58, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Weak keep. This article is worth keeping, but the sourcing needs to be improved. 71.246.78.77 (talk) 12:18, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Checkuser blocked. Queen of Hearts talk 23:53, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: A lot of coverage seems to show this is a notable Nigerian celebrity (see for example https://www.pulse.ng/entertainment/celebrities/comedian-nasty-blaq-bags-ambassadorial-deal-with-dubai-based-fashion-line/rxffl59) and that the subject meets the requirement for a page; deletion does not seem necessary but trimming does. I am not sure the mention of the cars he owns is of extreme interest, for instance, but maybe I'm wrong. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 19:50, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: I'm concerned that this article doesn't meet WP:ANYBIO as there is limited coverage of the subject in reliable sources. I think it's important to prioritize notability and ensure that our articles meet Wikipedia's standards. — talk 7:50, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: He has worked with worked so many famous brands, few are Kubanah Whiskey Unveils Nastyblaq As Brand Ambassador, Cardtonic signs Mega Influencer, comedy star Nasty Blaq as their latest Brand Ambassador and so many more but I intended not to put it in the article because it will sound promotional
