Male models
There is barely paid attention to male models on the entire page. This should be rectified, also there are like a dozen pictures of female models, but not even one picture of a male one. Civciv5 (talk) 01:35, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
I noticed that too, there is not one single image of a male model, which makes the whole page look bizarre, especially during the 21st century. - Okama-San (talk) 09:20, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, where are the male models??? Missvain (talk) 04:54, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
- You might want to pay more attention to the article - there is a male model photo in there. I admit it's not in yer face, but it is present and makes the claims above false. Let's play a game, and see if you can find it? Chaheel Riens (talk) 07:34, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Yaashika Aannand notability?
I'm just wondering about the actual notibility - within this particular article - of Aannand? 145,000 followers isn't really that many in the world of social media:
- Caitlin O'Connor - 450,000
- Miranda Kerr - 11 million
Instagram models
- Matthew Noszka - 650,000
- rosie roff - 1.9 million
Chaheel Riens (talk) 11:23, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- I probably ought to mention that when User:Abishe added the Yaashika Aannand content to this article the number of Instagram followers was given at "over 1 million". I reduced this to "over 145,000" to be consistent with the source cited (dated July 2017). I've just checked what I assume to be her Instagram profile and it indicates that her number of followers is currently over 330,000. - Polly Tunnel (talk) 11:58, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, I saw the original insertion, and subsequent change from 1 million to 145,000. Fair enough - 330,000 is much better than 145,000. The question was based on the context that she was being touted as making a name for herself via Instagram, yet 145,000 isn't big numbers when compared to Noszka and Roff who are also Insta-models (is that even a word?) Chaheel Riens (talk) 12:41, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- I guess the question is "What makes an Instagram model WP:noteworthy?" I've made the assumption in my own editing of this section that it should include people with WP:RELIABLE sources referring to them as Instagram models in ways that are not WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS. In practice this has led to a distinction between those who are famous for nothing but their Instagram modelling and those who have become famous for other work after becoming known as Instagram models. In the latter case there is an unprovable and generally unstated implication of causality – that Instagram modelling led to other sorts of fame. Yaashika Aannand appears to fall into this latter category. I've been making the assumption that if Instagram modelling led to a person's subsequent noteworthiness then they are noteworthy as an Instagram model. There appear to be a signifiant number of people who have used Instagram modelling as a route to success in other careers, which in itself seems noteworthy. Personally I'd prefer to use a criterion like this rather than a strict threshold based on the number of Instagram followers. What do you think? - Polly Tunnel (talk) 13:46, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- I'm good with that rationale. It just seemed initially that the reasons for inclusion were primarily that she had "over 1 million" followers (which is not bad) but was then correctly changed to 145,000 - no great shakes. However, your following logic is impeccable, and is a pretty good path to follow for future inclusions (or exclusions). Chaheel Riens (talk) 08:09, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

@Chaheel Riens: & @Polly Tunnel: I apologise for my wording on the number of Instagram followers of Yaashika Aannand in the article. I mentioned the number of followers amounting to over 1 million but I got to know later that she is actually having just 1.45K followers. I actually got the wrong information on the on the number of Instagram followers of her from few websites like this 1, rather than looking into her original Instagram profile. But I should clearly say that she rose to prominence in the Tamil film industry after being a popular Instagram model. Abishe (talk) 13:22, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
Instamodel Vs sex for money
I've rephrased this, but the rationale is too long for an edit summary:
- There is nothing in the attached sources to suggest that "Many" instamodels do this.
- The term most applicable is call girl, not prostitute. There are differences in connotations and behaviour - Call girl is the closest, as per the article description.
- There is, in any case, a single source to say that this even happens, and the grounds for inclusion and assumption that the instamodel is a call girl are hopelessly unscientific "If she’s meets [sic] me in person, then I know she’s willing to do anything for money."
- Just some generic copy editing to fix up lazy assumptions and inaccuracies in the text.
