This is an anonymous creator's unfinished project at a dead website, where they collected all of the My Little Pony videos and ran them through open source voice cloning software. Their grandiose view of their own project doesn't mean that it's notable. This article is 49% original research, and 49% content that needs to be moved to the Audio_deepfake article, since it's so generalized. I'm very impressed at boundless energy this particular group of editors has towards curating this article, considering the topic. It ultimately doesn't belong on Wikipedia though.

• Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2023 January 16. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 01:04, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

• Delete Other than the IGN article and the Arxiv pre-prints, the rest aren't reliable as sources. I don't find any RS discussions we could use. Oaktree b (talk) 01:25, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
• Keep Extremely important as it's one example of the first TTS voice generators and neural networks. I do not see why this is considered for deletion and it's currently under maintenance. There is also plenty of high quality citations. (talk) 05:16, 16 January 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bloodclotboy12 (talk • contribs)

• Delete, how the hell did this become a GA? LilianaUwU ^{(talk / contribs)} 13:27, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
• Delete, although context from this article could probably make more general adjacent articles (such as Deepfake) into a GA article. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 14:22, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

• Strong Keep. As one of the primary editors of the article in the past (now mostly inactive due to real-life things), the article from several months ago was most certainly up to GA standards. However, this article has constantly been plagued by anonymous editors and new users making unsubstantiated edits ever since the article was first created. I have since reverted the article back to what it was back in November. As for notability, the subjects absolutely meets the requisite standards, and as pointed above, was extremely crucial in the development of TTS voice generation. I apologize for being inactive as an editor for so long, but I did not expect the level of vandalism to reach this high, causing concern for the legitimacy of this article. —HackerKnownAs (talk) 19:36, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

• • I have since requested a higher level of protection for the article. The last request was accepted and lasted for a month, but it appears that this was not nearly strong enough. —HackerKnownAs (talk) 19:36, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

• Keep The guy who runs the site goes on hiatus like every other month for improvements, this isn't anything new. Page was still up the last time it went under maintenance.
