WP:BLP of an actress and political consultant, not properly referenced as passing our notability criteria for either actresses or political consultants. The notability claim as an actress is that she had her debut acting role in a film that was just released two weeks ago -- but just having had an acting role is not an automatic notability freebie in and of itself, and the sources for it consist of a Rotten Tomatoes profile (not a notability-supporting source at all) and a bunch of articles about the film which glancingly namecheck her existence in the cast list while failing to actually say a single word about her or her performance, thus not helping to build notability. And as for her political work, the notability claim is that she's had jobs, sourced only to a primary source interview self-published by her own former employer -- but that also isn't a notability-buidling source, as (a) it isn't external attention being paid to her by an independent source, and (b) she isn't the subject under discussion, but the interviewer. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced much, much better than this. Bearcat (talk) 19:51, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Sorry-- new to this. Thought when the names are hyperlinked, information could be added, so researched subjects and included where i found information. Articles referencing her name are established news sources. MovieGeek1986

Since it's always possible for anybody to wikilink absolutely any word or phrase in any article at any time, the existence of a presumptive redlink in another article is not in and of itself an automatic guarantee that an article can actually be written that meets our inclusion standards.

Keep: Agree on the political references-- needs considerable improvement in the reference arena. On the acting portion: she was given a top billing in the film, and was mentioned as a starring actor in a multitude of publications (needs better references as well). If she wasn't notable however, she wouldn't have been given the consideration of "starring" by production or publications, nor would she have been given top billing. But she was, so I think this counts as notable. Perhaps this should be a draft until it's referenced appropriately? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8802:430F:3000:B140:8EEC:4B43:73BD (talk • contribs) 2:39 1 August 2021 (UTC)

The fact of having had acting roles is not an automatic inclusion freebie in and of itself — no matter how many acting roles an actor or actress has or hasn't had, the notability test is not in the list of credits, but in the depth and range and volume of coverage about her and her performances that can or can't be shown to support an article with. Sources that mention her name aren't enough, if they don't focus on her. Bearcat (talk) 21:53, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No evidence of notability for either acting or politics at this time. Trillfendi (talk) 17:41, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A WP:BEFORE search doesn't yield anything to satisfy the notability issues presented in the nomination. The coverage about her career, either in the sense of acting or political activism, is cursory at best. Does not meet WP:GNG at this time. --Kinu ^t/_c 19:04, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
