Fails WP:NACTOR. Article hinges completely on their IMDB page and cursory google search doesn't show any mention of this subject outside of routine, typical coverage. Sulfurboy (talk) 16:10, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable. I couldn't find anything that shows this article is notable. TheAwesome Hwyh 03:31, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep: I think the subject passes WP:NACTOR—she's played supporting roles in some big films, including Dark Skies (film) and Hanging Up, as well as dozens of guest spots in TV series and smaller roles in several other films. The argument for WP:GNG is a bit weaker, because most of the sources I am finding simply mention her with respect to her roles—but, there are quite a few sources, from Broadway World and Los Angeles Times, among others. The article itself needs some work, but I don't think deletion is necessary in this instance. Dflaw4 (talk) 04:56, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Her guest roles and smaller roles wouldn't come in to play with WP:NACTOR. I see she had supporting roles in those two films, but I'm not seeing evidence that her role in those movies were significant. Broadway World wouldn't be considered a reliable secondary source. And what La Times article are you referencing? The only two I see only mention the person in a WP:ROUTINE manner and wouldn't constitute the substantial coverage required by GNG. Sulfurboy (talk) 09:45, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Right, Sulfurboy, but they do show that the actress has a fairly large body of work, and there are a few more films in which she has had supporting roles, too. I generally consider supporting roles in notable films to be "significant". As for the Los Angeles Times articles, they do seem to be fairly routine, I agree: https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2019-09-10/new-movies-opening-in-la-this-week-sept-15-22-brad-pitt-ad-astra-downton-abbey-Rambo; https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/showtracker/la-et-st-thursdays-tv-highlights-working-the-engels-on-nbc-20140820-story.html. There are more substantial articles, too, although they come from less reliable sources. But, putting it all together, I think there is enough for a "Weak" Keep—certainly not a "Strong" Keep.

Seems to be a borderline keep. I agree with Dflaw4 that being a supporting actress in so many movies is an indication of notability. However, relatively little can be found about her in RS. My very best wishes (talk) 22:27, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The only source is IMDb which is not reliable, we should not have articles with no reliable sources especially on living people.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:01, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I've now added text and sources to the article. Dflaw4 (talk) 15:39, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The coverage of her is minimal, so the article fails WP:GNG. It is not obvious that her supporting roles reaches the bar set by WP:ACTOR. I see that our article and imdb give different birth years (1971 vs 1975), so there is definitely also a question about our ability to write a verifiable article.

Keep: Had a starring role in a TV series Breaking news with Tim Matheson and Clancy Brown. Кирилл С1 (talk) 12:08, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
