Non-notable autobiographical article in which the only apparent "citations" are not from independent secondary reliable sources, but appear to be from promotional web-sites. JOJ ^Hutton 18:10, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - As an actress and comedian, I can find little in the way of non-promotional sources to suggest that she is notable (this seems to suggest that she is not incredibly active). There does seem to be significant coverage of a legal case involving her and Verne Troyer [1] [2] [3] but this all happens over about a month; certainly not sustained coverage.

Delete - Of the list of 5 "references" for this BLP, 1 is a broken link, 2 of them simply end up at her headshot and name but no text, 1 is an appearance on a podcast (not really a news source, other than to indicate she was alive at that time), and one is a few sentences about an appearance she had on Howard Stern in 2008, certainly nothing newsworthy or that would satisfy WP:GNG. Other links are self-promotional, and as ItsZippy points out, her only other appearance in the media might only barely satisfy WP:BLP1E.

Comment Certainly the current state suffers from poor souring and poorer tone, but these are quite often addressable issues that do not require deletion. In looking at the many, available reliable sources speaking toward this comedian,[4] it seems that most deal with her relationship and problems with Verne Troyer, but still... within them are facts that can be used to support much of this article. Who's up for a little work? Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 11:46, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
