The previous nomination failed because it was a mass nomination of 15 articles a year and a half ago. It closed keep because people were not willing to individually examine each article. The article has 5 sources. 2 are official profiles. The other three are 2 articles from the News-Miner, a paper of just under 10,000 circulation based in Fairbanks, where she was a university student, and another from a radio station in Fairbanks. They all focus on her roles in the Miss USA competition, so it amounts to coverage for one event. The article has a line "Caroll is a Political Science student at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks." The link to the paper website does not work, so I cannot figure out a key question. Carroll was 25 at the time, so was she an undergrad or a graduate student. Both scenarios are possible, but no clear indication is given. Either way, she is probably not a student 8 years later, maybe if she is now pursuing a Ph.D., but was not at that time. However what is clear is she is not important enough for anyone to have bothered to update the information from 8 years ago. This is a strong indication that Carroll just is not notable.

• Weak delete: If additional sources can be found, I'd be willing to reconsider. But as it sits, state-level pageant winner. Montanabw^(talk) 18:27, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable for stand alone article. Kierzek (talk) 02:51, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
• Comment. I browsed in graduation names lists at UAF and did not find her name. I added to the article that in 2011, she was pursuing an acting career in Los Angeles, and that by 2015, she had accumulated four acting credits, had stunts and art department credits. She also has performed stunts in several productions and has one art department credit. With the other references that makes five.

I could go either way, keep or not. --doncram 18:55, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

• Comment Her four TV/film credits are all in works we lack articles on. I cannot comment on whether they were important to the works. Most stunt people are not notable, and we lack any sources that suggest she is an exception to that rule. The added sources all suggest Carroll is not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:26, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
• Delete My searches did not turn up anything. (comment by Tomwsulcer)--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:26, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
• Delete. especially because of the absence of anything in her career since the event that might indicate any notability DGG ( talk ) 13:55, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
