The subject’s name seems common as there are numerous hits on a Google search. However almost all seem to be about multiple other people. Doing a couple of interviews about how you won some dance competitions doesn’t really make someone notable. Mccapra (talk) 17:57, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

delete I wouldn't even call the competition significant, I've not heard of it at least. Oaktree b (talk) 18:35, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Truly a beautiful article. Orphaned, not notable, basic copyediting... this article is the epitome of perfection. סשס Grimmchild. He/him, probably 11:16, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you could try your hand at writing one rather than spend your time leaving low-effort sarcastic comments about others'. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 12:45, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Probably keep, but I'm holding off on a boldtext !vote because I'm just not familiar with the reliability of the sources I'm seeing. What I do see are dozens if not hundreds of news stories about this person spanning over time, and using language that indicates this is a notable dancer (in fact, and via sourcing). May revisit if someone can shed light on the reliability of e.g. B&FT Online, Modern Ghana, Ghana Weekend, GhanaWeb, Pulse, etc. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 12:45, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unless someone can come up with some reliable sources about this World Dance Championship. All sources seem to reiterate the same claims from Sowah, but I can't find any indication of what championship this was, who won before or after them, ... I have seen too many similar articles with strong claims of Africans or Asians winning "prestigious" awards or championships in (usually) the UK which turn out to be some very osbcure or paid for thing they use to inflate their supposed importance. As said above, a dreadful article otherwise, but that can be fixed if the sources appear. Fram (talk) 13:31, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
