It may seem I have a vendetta against the Dotrices, but I don't! People don't generally inherit notability from their far more well-known family members (well, not on Wikipedia at the moment). Kay Dotrice died only a few years ago and I would expect a significant obituary somewhere to recognise her enduring importance. Unfortunately I can only find a very brief death notice. Should we put an end to this article, or is there something I'm missing? Sionk (talk) 14:22, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
- Redirect to Roy Dotrice#Personal life. She did appear in 25 episodes of Crossroads (soap opera), but I can't find any other major film or TV roles, or any details about major stage roles. It's possible there is some press coverage from 70s or 80s but so far there's no evidence she meets WP:ACTOR or WP:BIO. In any case, there's very little info in the article, and I'm not sure she was really best known for her Shakespearean work (she was also in Cheech & Chong's The Corsican Brothers in a small role alongside her husband). --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:07, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
