Something doesn't look right. This person looks notable, but I've drawn a complete and total blank on finding sources. The article was created way back in the prehistoric era when IPs could start articles; hopefully it's not a hoax. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 17:58, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment A talk-show host by this name does exist: see, e.g., this Publishers Weekly book review[1], or articles in the New York Post, Utne Reader, New York Times. Cheers, gnu57 18:41, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I think this one is pretty clear cut. It was just an old article; I've added sources. She seems to be (or have been) a reasonably successful entertainer and particularly important within the African-American community in the United States. She was the host of this popular television show and even earned a full profile in the New York Post. Her media output has been reviewed in major US publications including Publisher's Weekly, The New York Times, People, etc., etc. More recently she was featured in the Denver Post and the magazine Diabetes Forecast for her diabetes-awareness work. Deleting seems incredibly rash. Brycehughes (talk) 23:36, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are also lots of additional sources out there along with the ones sited above that are behind paywalls, covering many parts of her career. Easily meets the GNG. A sampling of some of the better newspaper articles. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 03:16, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
