Article on a deceased 27-y-o camera assistant. Adequate amount of coverage about the circumstances of the death and the APA lobbying efforts, but the article suffers from several problems, including a eulogistic tone. What little biographical material in the article has been directly copied from an anonymous bio on imdb (who writes this shit anyway, and where's the editorial control?). Her death was tragic and the result of inconsiderate/incompetent planning an execution of a film shoot that raised some questions as to safety, but it nevertheless seems to be just another case of a person being known for only one event, and I don't think having an 'im memoriam' tribute confers notability.

The incident has two paragraphs in the article about the film she was involved in when she died. Ohc ^¡digame! 02:40, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Midnight Rider (film). Her death got a surprising amount of coverage, but it looks like a pretty clear WP:BLP1E. Right now, the article on her last film covers this quite in depth, and I'd argue it's already approaching the level of WP:UNDUE. If something comes of her death, that will satisfy WP:LASTING, but I think it's too early to claim notability for the event. With both the person and the event failing to conclusively demonstrate notability, I suggest a redirect. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 22:48, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
