Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a "cake artist", not properly referenced as passing inclusion criteria for artists or chefs. As always, people are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to show WP:GNG-worthy coverage about them in sources independent of themselves -- but this is referenced entirely to primary sources that aren't support for notability, with not a single piece of third party media coverage shown at all, and even a Google News search just gets me hits for boxer Vanessa Lepage Joanisse rather than any "cake artist". The article, further, has been tagged for sourcing problems since 2010 without having any better sourcing added.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt this person from having to be referenced far, far better than this. Bearcat (talk) 19:06, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The only RS I could find is not in-depth. Two books mention her in connection to her grandfather who is notable as a collector of his artifacts. See [1], [2]. She does appear to have been featured on Canadian news segments (see [3]), and her business was recommended in this article https://torontolife.com/style/wedding-cakes-in-toronto/ She also has an IMDB page indicating she has appeared on Canadian reality TV programs as a cake maker and on news programs. I could find no independent coverage though of these appearances.4meter4 (talk) 19:45, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Hardly anything in Canadian sources found. Her website, facebook, other social media. Appears to be a working baker, very good at her craft, not notable for our purposes here. Oaktree b (talk) 23:15, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:SIGCOV and as noted above. That she appears in "The Big Book of Canadian Trivia" is a sign that she's interesting but trivial. Bearian (talk) 13:33, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
