Unsourced BLP. It has remained that way for a long time. I went through the entire article history and never found one reliable source (IMDB is not a reliable source). Crazymonkey1123 (Jacob) ^{T or M}/_{Sign mine} 23:51, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable. All Google News hits, even when I specify "actress", are for the author and foreign policy specialist of the same name. --MelanieN (talk) 21:02, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment- The only items from that reference that could be cited in the subject's bio are the program name and the character role name; the previous/ next sections are the other actors/ roles, and the station will broadcast the series, inferred this year. This section is about the role, and opinions and perceptions of the actress of it. Dru of Id (talk) 18:59, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete This is quite a difficult one to call, because she has made a role in at least one notable production. According to statement 1 in WP:ENT, an actor needs to have "had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." One of the notable productions she took part in was Little Britain where she played as Jane Evans, and yet I took a look at the List of Little Britain characters and that character isn't even listed on there, which in my opinion Jane Evans isn't a very important character, and thus meaning this was only a minor role. There's only one significant role of a character that she played, and that was Debbie Rossi in The Cup, but still, one significant role isn't good enough to pass WP:ENT.

Jane Edwards (not Evans) was a very small role, only appearing in four sketches in TV series 2 (those with "Harvey Pincher" in the title). I don't think that was Powers's only part in LB however: I have the CDs of both radio series - they state "Performed by Matt Lucas, David Walliams, Gwenllian Davies, Tom Baker, Samantha Power, Paul Putner" (series 1) and "Performed by Matt Lucas, David Walliams, Jean Ainslie, Tom Baker, Samantha Power, Paul Putner" (series 2), but unfortunately they do not link characters to actors. Eliminating the men, there is only one name common to both series, so any genuinely female characters found in both series were likely played by Power. There are several of these, such as Myfanwy (in several Dafydd Thomas sketches) and Samantha (wife of Edward Grant, her former schoolteacher). --Redrose64 (talk) 21:10, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
