Spam lacking a solid claim to notability. awards shown are not major. full of sources that verify associated aspects but not anything to do with Werner Grey. Deceptive sourcing designed to mislead. Mostly a mix of primary and non reliable sources. Closest we may have is a The Times of India article but a quick look shows this is not a reliable source as it publishes false claims, demonstarting a lack of "fact-checking and accuracy." Werner Grey lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Her acting falls short multiple significant roles.

comment - the Times of India is one of the premier English language newspapers in all of Asia.-- The Red Pen of Doom 12:22, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- although I do have to admit that their lack of any critical response or follow through on her thoroughly quackery health claims means this particular article [1] is pure fluff and not journalism. -- The Red Pen of Doom 00:37, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I do not accept promotional articles in Indian newspapers as being independent--they are clearly based on a PR effort. The Times of India one in particular makes an incorrect claim to the nature of her Miss Earth award (at least if the article in WP is to believed) , and is devoted to promotion of her "Earth diet". This leaves us without reliable sources for notability of popular culture figures in India, and I do not know how to deal with it except by making our own estimate of the importance of their careers.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

The underhanded attempts to use wikipedia to promote Werner-Gray continue with the recent removal of the AFD notice from her article. [5]. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:37, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
