No evidence of notability yet. Acting roles are unremarkable, beauty pageants results are not significant enough, Net Top Model career was short... Fram (talk) 09:37, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - not convinced that any of the non-notable parts add up to make a notable whole. Some of the claims for notability are plain dishonest - "she has starred in..." which we then find out means "appeared (uncredited) in...". Stlwart111 10:34, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, although previous article was indeed substandard, and hopefully improved as per WP:HEYMANN, with references here and here and here and here and here and here and here, suggesting she meets the WP:GNG. What is cool is how she really bombed on American Idol but keeps at it.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 21:26, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Um, the references are about two different people. The American Idol person is a 22-year old (in 2010) substitute teacher from Texas. Miss Teen person is a 17-year old (in 2009) from Minnesota. I've reverted Tomwsulcer's additions that included American Idol. Bgwhite (talk) 04:58, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're right about the American Idol contestant with the same name. Still, this Vanessa Johnston has sufficient sources here and here and here and here which are multiple independent reliable nontrivial sources, and her Miss Teen Minnesota credentials are well documented, so in my view she meets the WP:GNG.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 20:43, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The articles are not that substantive. Vallarta Today, #4 on Tomwsulcer's list, is definitely trivial promoting Puerta vallarta because of a Johnson Tweet. #3 is "Good burp lands a role in Pepsi Max ad", #2 entitled "Who should wear the crown? Faith Schway has a knack for making pageant winners" is about Faith Schway, and has one small section about Johnson winning Miss teen. #1 "Lakeville teen navigates Hollywood" is the only one that is substantive, and all of #1 through #3 are home-town paper stuff, not broad coverage. --Bejnar (talk) 23:15, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
