The result was delete. Mix of WP:BLPDELETE and WP:SNOW. Regarding the one non-delete !vote, article is copy-pasted from Lea Michele, so there's nothing to merge. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 05:15, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This content can be covered in Lea Michele just fine. Also, per WP:CRITS, this sort of thing should be avoided. Cerebral726 (talk) 12:33, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:CRITS, with an added slice of BLP concerns. Madeline (part of me) 12:36, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Lea Michelle article. I could see breaking this section out into another article if there was more to discuss, this is 1.5 paragraphs. Oaktree b (talk) 15:16, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:CRITS and WP:RUMOR. An entire paragraph is devoted to a ridiculous rumor/joke, and the other paragraph is written non-neutrally with statements that take accusations as facts (so-and-so "confirmed" an accusation). -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:26, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Wholly inappropriate WP:BLP content. Ovinus (talk) 21:48, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, per WP:BLP and WP:NOTSCANDAL, e.g. Articles must not be written purely to attack the reputation of another person, and WP:CRITS. The content, and the non-neutral language, is also included in the Lea Michele article in the Reception and public image section. Beccaynr (talk) 17:54, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Attempts to fix the Lea Michele article was responded to with the addition of more sources, including one that refers to its reporting as "gossip", and the restoration of content to the article that raises WP:BLP and WP:SYNTH concerns. Beccaynr (talk) 18:23, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
