The article looks like something I would find on a fansite, entirely lacks any verifiable third-party references what-so-ever (the one third-party reference appears to fall under the category of being an unverifiable fansite) and thus is made up of realistically nothing but original research. Additionally, I seriously call into question the notability of this article as the character itself has truthfully played (and I say this as someone who observes the show) a non-pivotal, minor, role. If anything, it should be merged into List of True Blood Characters at absolute bare minimal. ⒺⓋⒾⓁⒼⓄⒽⒶⓃ② ^talk 23:04, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Looking at the Google News link above shows many RS references for this character, many obviously since she was portrayed by a notable actress. Jclemens (talk) 03:08, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The notability of an actor or actress does not make a character notable, especially a recurring one at that. For example, Wil Wheaton is a notable actor, but one singular special guest appearance of a non-recurring character on Eureka does not make the character notable, while on the other hand, Q (though unfortunately not being the greatest of examples as it also fails to cite sources), portrayed by John de Lancie is a complete other matter as his role was entirely pivotal to the series, Star Trek: The Next Generation. Additionally, searching Google for reliable sources is a completely different matter. The fact remains that the article does not cite any. Concurrently, this fails to address the notability of the character or the fact that the article looks like a fansite. I should also point out that the article has been cited as failing to meet requirements of notability for well over a year now - being tagged as non-notable since June of 2009. I would be remiss if I failed to point out as it has been tagged as not citing sources for the same length in time. The character just is not notable enough under Wikipedia standards of notability to warrant it's own article outside of the character listing. ⒺⓋⒾⓁⒼⓄⒽⒶⓃ② ^talk 22:02, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
