Fails WP:GNG, only source is a blog post from 2001, a filmography, and a video the subject is in. A quick google doesn't reveal any sources that could be added to back any of this up. FrederalBacon (talk) 00:41, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nom Withdrawn Let's make this easy, in the intervening almost month since I listed this, there have been significant changes to the article, adding more sourcing. I think the subject now meets GNG, so I will withdraw the AFD, since no one seems to be to keen on commenting on it either way anyway. FrederalBacon (talk) 15:43, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep. Firstly I object to "a quick google" being what is quoted here. The searches that should inform a deletion nomination are detailed here: WP:BEFORE and having done that, I see plenty books confirming that she is indeed a well known actor and choreographer. I added them in. As far as dance films go, Dirty Dancing is a classic and she was the dance coach for the star. That appears to have kicked off a long career in choreography, acting and directing. I think she passes WP:CREATIVE. I saw weak because there are lots of passing mentions, rather than lots of writing, but in the context of CREATIVE allowing notability based on the notability of the works, she's clearly played roles in very many blockbusters. I think we need to be mindful that she was born in 1950 and worked in the 1980s and sources are likely going to be offline. CT55555 (talk) 01:56, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, the "quick google" is a flippant way of describing the actual looking into her I did. I found her mentioned, A LOT, in passing, in articles about the movies she has been involved in, and in passing in articles detailing notable choreographers she has worked with, Kenny Ortega obviously being chief amongst them. And while she may meet certain specific project guidelines, every article still has to also meet GNG, and passing mentions galore doesn't indicate the "Significant Coverage" part of GNG. "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." FrederalBacon (talk) 06:00, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with CT55555. User:elfelix
Keep, notability established by CT555555. Mujinga (talk) 22:02, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Mujinga: I have no idea how your signature ended up merged into CT55555's above, but I have corrected this for you. I couldn't quite work out at first who the original !vote was made by. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 09:19, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
