She's had a number of bit parts; most notable role is a minor character in Hunger Games. Maybe she'll warrant a page in the near future, but I don't think she's quite there yet. JoelWhy (talk) 21:31, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. She's got some writeups for her role in Hunger Games[1][2][3], but that's not enough IMO. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:42, 29 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
More articles than just for that alone, actually. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 23:28, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. She's been in numerous television series and films. There are a few references and more information is to be added. Her Hunger Games role is giving her much fame. She will also have a main role in "Being Mary Jane" as Dr. Lisa Hudson. Her Hunger Games character Portia is also in "Catching Fire" where she has a bigger role where she introduces the new head game-maker. --Zannabanna (talk) 03:26, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. Seventeen minor credits in TV episodes and shorts don't bolster her notability, and Being Mary Jane is in pre-production. It's just WP:TOOSOON. Clarityfiend (talk) 10:06, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep. Subject is covered in enough sources[4] so that this is not a failed BLP, and an encyclopedic article can be maintained for our readers. As with any actor, we do not judge notability by the least of their roles, but by the best... and we can then factor in length of career, and yes... even those minor roles. She first received media attention in 2002 for her appearances in the Bravo TV series The It Factor,[5] and while since then not starring in as many major productions as many Hollywood notables, nor getting massive amounts of coverage, she has done enough per WP:ENT and has just enough coverage per WP:GNG so that she as a topic is worthy of being retained and expanded and improved over time and through regular editing. Wikipedia does not restrict its coverage to only Academy Award winners... and even if seen by some as only minor, notability is still notability.

Keep The existing Digital Journal reference, plus this S2 reference, reach, barely WP:GNG. --joe decker ^{talk to me} 17:57, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
