Unknown YouTuber; please peruse the history to see the historic amount of fluff (sourced to YouTube and Twitter) I scrapped from the article. Drmies (talk) 18:29, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

- Delete per nom, if only for WP:TNT.
Also possible is Redirect to KSI.Note Draft:Deji Olatunji. --Muhandes (talk) 19:08, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: noting Deji Olatunji and Oladeji Olatunji are salted, I withdraw the Redirect and suggest Salt. --Muhandes (talk) 08:48, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Per WP:GNG. KidAd • SPEAK 21:26, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Previous AFDs on this person are here and here, both had Delete decisions and Deji Olatunji has administrative protection from recreation. Liz Read! Talk! 03:04, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
- Comment And while I think the article should be deleted, I wanted to tell Drmies that he is far from unknown hence the repeated efforts of editors to create an article about him on Wikipedia. I mean, he has over 10 million subscribers on YouTube, he has a big fan following. But I wouldn't call him "Wikipedia notable". Liz Read! Talk! 03:07, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Fails WP:GNG. ManaliJain (talk) 12:00, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete this is at least the 7th or so AFD under various names for this utterly non-notable YouTuber. I've previously made a lengthy argument and I stand by it: merely being related to another notable YTer and appearing on said channel is not enough to pass our silly low-bar for notability.

- Ah, so there are even more than the 2 previous AFDs that I found. His fans are nothing if not persistent. This might call for a liberal sprinkling of salt. Liz Read! Talk! 20:58, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
- Given how difficult it was to keep track of these (I know there's at least one or two more that I can't remember) I think leaving it...unseasoned may be best for tracking purposes. CUPIDICAE💕 22:57, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
- User:Praxidicae, holy moly! I'm wondering if this isn't a matter to be handled by a filter. Do you know a filter person? Thanks. Drmies (talk) 18:18, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

- Delete and salt — Per Drmies nom rationale. Fails GNG + This is a blatant ADMASQ. Celestina007 (talk) 22:11, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete It's clear he doesn't meet any WP notability criteria. I'm also for salting, but it might me tricky to do given the willingness to recreate this article under a variety of titles. Papaursa (talk) 20:06, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Notable for being a youtuber with a couple million subscribers, but I don't think wikipedia-notable LockzZ (talk) 22:30, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - I do not think the subject has the level of notability that would merit an article as has been argued by others above. Dunarc (talk) 23:52, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
