There's nothing notable about this girl, the novelty wore off five years ago. She released an album that never even made it to the Top 200 music albums, and besides her appearances in some little-known men and racing magazines, she doesn't fully establish notability. Also, the majority of editors (her fanbase, most likely) kept adding that her fame stems from "pornos", "an album that flopped", and "started porn as a minor". That says enough: are we really going to put an article about Kaila Yu here? That's not notability. If anyone has an opposing opinion, feel free to explain. ★Dasani★ 08:32, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't really see how this is grounds for deleting the article. If we are following your argument, then Paris Hilton should be deleted as well. - J3ff (talk) 05:48, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - the nominator was a frequent and substaintial contributor to the article over time. This is all very puzzling. There was a much longer list that was cut back. I don't know enough about the area to make a recommendation, but there is a lot more here than meets the surface. Racepacket (talk) 12:22, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I'm not sure I understand the nominator's rationale. It sounds to me like the issues are that she is no longer active, and that people have been adding questionable material to the article. Neither of these by themselves is a valid rationale for deletion. For my part, I haven't been able to assess notability due to the potential for NSFW content, which is why I haven't provided a !vote yet. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 16:47, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

She's not known for much, except maybe scantily clad appearances in movies and magazines. Also, she has since deleted her MySpace and official website. Basically, it seems to me she's trying to put herself out of business. Looking around, I can't find one good article of her that's a reliable source, including celebrity websites. ★Dasani★ 23:22, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Granted there's a absence of sources, but a quick read through shows a decent sized filmography and what appears to be a couple of CDs released. Granted, they may not have gone too far, but I do think it all adds up to notability. Tabercil (talk) 16:50, 16 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't see anything that indicates notability per WP:MUSICBIO or even WP:GNG. TheJazzDalek (talk) 02:31, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Playboy Model with a studio album? Sounds notable to me. Str8cash (talk) 04:00, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
