Clearly PASSES the , and especially the . This person has a fully dedicated in-depth interview and profile in Forbes Magazine-- an independent and secondary source with a circulation of almost 1 MILLION, and 71.1 MILLION unique visitors, and also is interviewed and profiled in OUT Magazine, with a magazine circulation of 203,000. This is no small feat of notability in its own right, besides considering the subject very obviously passing the  criteria in addition. The model is featured on Models.com, the most important and critical source in the fashion industry in ranking the notability of models that there is. To even have a dedicated profile on that site (which is an independent and secondary news source-- models do not control or have any sway on getting a ranking into the site) is proof in itself of being of the most notable models in the entire industry. His profile also shows he was Calvin Klein exclusive in 2015 (the most prestigious brand contract that can be bestowed on a male model), has also walked the runway for Versace, Ralph Lauren, and others. He has also been in ad campaigns for Tom Ford and Steve Madden. These are major and starring involvements in almost all of the top major brand productions in the fashion industry-- especially those that are seen as particularly notable for male models. All of this is very clearly demonstrated in the subject's client work on his Models.com page-- and quite convincingly proves his notability as one of the top male models in the world, in addition to his general notability proven by the Forbes, OUT, and Man of Metropolis in-depth profiles about the subject. To say the model doesn't meet the  guidelines is clearly showing a lack of knowledge of the modelling industry and perhaps even a lack of fair examination of the sources already provided in the article before making any judgement or criticism. Simply stating something does not prove that statement as fact, without any evidence to backup the argument. I believe this article is of great interest to those in the modelling and fashion community especially, and should most definitely be kept to further enhance Wikipedia and its archival of the history of fashion and culture
