the sourcing of this article is one short article on Xbiz about him signing exclusive and the list of the winner of Hookies Award (definitely not an important prize). I searched some significant source myself but I couldn't find any. AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 15:19, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

  • Delete a non-notable pornographic performer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:13, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Delete The anthropologist :William Leap wrote two (very similar) articles about anonymous internet comments on a men's pornography website, both of which mention various postings about Mr. Washington[https://books.google.com/books?id=5Kss1SurqKUC&pg=PA261][https://books.google.com/books?id=81rBAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA136]. I suppose that this is coverage of a sort, but I doubt that it could support a BLP. The only other coverage I found was [https://instinctmagazine.com/diesel-washingtons-honest-upfront-views-on-racism-in-the-gay-porn-world/ this interview] in Instinct and passing mentions or tabloid gossip in the Bay Area Reporter and Queerty.

  • Keep News search [https://www.google.com/search?q=%22diesel+washington%22+gay&tbm=nws] shows 86 articles, mostly about him. While most mentions are passing, but [https://www.queerty.com/diesel-wants-us-make-love-not-walls-20170221], [https://instinctmagazine.com/opinion-the-10-greatest-gay-porn-stars-ever/], and [http://www.sentidog.com/lat/2010/05/diesel-washington-diversidad-si-interracial-no.html] seem to be admissible refs (plus dozens of others may count collectively too), so he is IMO passing WP:N threshold.

  • {{ping|Ipsign}} The Queerty one is about the fashion company Diesel, not Mr. Washington (though his name does appear in a comment below the article). The Instinct listicle is marked as "contributor" content: "This post was created by one of our Contributing Writers and does not reflect the opinion of Instinct Magazine or the other Contributing Writers when it comes to this subject." I'm not familiar with SentidoG, but the article you've suggested looks like a blog post to me. Cheers, gnu57 19:45, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
