The actress possibly lacks notability to have her own article. The article itself has zero references and not much can be found about her on the web. Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 14:48, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Did you intend to articulate a deletion rationale? Jclemens (talk) 19:12, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - The argument is we should not have articles that are based solely on a source we ourselves have held to be non-reliable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:11, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There are at least three MORE notable Sarah Thomsons, but putting "Shortland Street" into the search turns up some bare mentions for climate change activism in a Google News search. Not enough to establish notability, but some mentions outside her acting. I don't see a beneficial or clear redirect target, however. Jclemens (talk) 19:12, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep Australian Women's Weekly & RNZ are reliable, but NZ On Air? Not sure as it's a list of on-air personalities. Needs more secondary sources to give it a strong keep. SBKSPP (talk) 00:55, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, WP:NACTOR requires significant roles in wikinotable productions, do Thomson's roles in The Moe Show and Shortland Street (amongst others) meet this? Coolabahapple (talk) 13:41, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Coolabahapple I think those will do as well. SBKSPP (talk) 00:44, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
