Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of most-followed Twitter accounts
For starters, the number of people who follow any given Twitter account changes daily for any number of reasons: new followers adding it, old followers removing it or getting deleted from the platform as Russian bots, and on and so forth — so it's a characteristic that's in a state of constant flux and renders a list dynamically unmaintanable. Secondly, with just one exception here the references aren't |reliable sources, but merely the |primary source Twitter feeds themselves — and the one reliable source exception just discusses Katy Perry's ''number'' of followers without being ''about'' the concept of ''comparing'' different people's Twitter followings. Which means that ''ranking'' people by the size of their twitbase isn't a ''thing'' that reliable sources ''do'' — it amounts to |original research that we're doing ''ourselves''. And at any rate, does it really ''matter'' how many Twitter followers a person has? Is Alicia Keys a ''better'' singer than Adele just because she has more Twitter followers? No, it just means that Alicia Keys' audience skews a bit younger and Adele's skews a bit older, so Alicia Keys' audience is somewhat more likely to be on Twitter in the first place. Does having more Twitter followers make Demi Lovato more important than Narendra Modi? Hardly; there just aren't as many people in India using the platform. And furthermore, the number of followers the person has doesn't necessarily correspond to the person's ''influence'' on the platform — as witness the fact that the one person on the list whose tweets get talked about in the news more than ''anybody'' else's doesn't even actually rank in the Top ''20'' by number of people and/or bots who follow him ''directly''. Who over the age of 12 ''really'' gives two hoots about such twaddle as who has more or less Twitter followers than who else
