Does not appear to meet WP:GNG: while there's some sources cited that look usable, on further inspection they fall short. At the bottom of the most substantial article, published in Stockhead ([1]), there's a disclaimer saying that all information in the article is the interviewee's (Lisa N Edwards') views and that the publication does not vouch for it. There's other interviews in less-than-reliable cryptocurrency publications (and even if they were reliable, the interview format raises questions about independence). Coverage of the subject's career as a writer seems to be limited to blogs, and falling short of WP:NAUTHOR. Meanwhile, the subject's acting roles appear to fall short of meeting WP:NACTOR, comprising minor parts. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 18:00, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Per nom. Note also that the review currently linked in the article is the "we'll review if you send us a free copy" kind - might be intellectually independent, but no good for notability. -- asilvering (talk) 21:32, 29 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. On inspection, fails WP:NACTOR, WP:NAUTHOR, WP:PROF. None of the current references (and some are very recent) really are RSs-- it's a bit of a hodge-podge of articles, none of which appear to be true reliable sources. Possibly she could be mentioned on her brother's page (Craig Steven Wright). She just doesn't appear to be sufficiently notable in any field to satisfy the relevant requirements.

Delete: Many of these sources are questionable. Going through them... first we have Telerama: I don't speak French or have a good understanding of the Francophone media landscape, but it looks like a IMDB-type site. There's an interview with PrimeXBT, which doesn't look like a media site at all, it's a crypto exchange (at any rate, a review is not a very reliable source for BLP anyway). The Writing Piazza, similarly, is an interview with her. ArtsHub looks like a real website with an editorial staff. Article is paywalled but it might be usable for more content. Steemit seems like a non-starter, it is just a webhost/social networking site. Magweb looks like utter dreck -- machine-generated clickbait, which I frankly expect to be scraped from Wikipedia. Vivid Publishing is just a publisher's website, not independent at all. Australian Geographic looks like a reputable site... but the source doesn't mention her at all. I don't see a lot of cryptocurrency sources in this article. Same for Australian Television -- no "Lisa Edwards" anywhere to be found. Same for abc.net.au, which I believe is a fairly credible source -- no mention of her in the article. Nor on Box Office Mojo. No mention in the cinemagazine.nl article, and the fusionmovies.to page is machine-generated actor summary page on a website that is definitely not a publication. I guess maybe I've found a site to stream free movies, but I haven't found a reliable source for a Wikipedia article. Finally, in the AACTA awards PDF, we have a mention of her as a juror -- in a list of some several dozen other people. We have..... a book giveaway advertisement, an interview from NerdyGirlExpress, and Edwards' own book. There is a short article about her upcoming film on Proactive Investors, which is a financial news site, okay, but the article isn't really about her. Basically, notability comes down to whether the couple Stockhead articles are SIGCOV. Per their about page says the publication is about Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) stocks, and they have actual editorial control over their content -- I don't know if they are a RS or not. At any rate, though, it seems like it's basically all interviews, and most of the sites are flagrantly subpar for BLP sourcing, and I move to delete. @Rosguill: which cryptocurrency publications are you referring to? I do not see these. jp×g 00:02, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think I misidentified PrimeXBT and gave it too much benefit of the doubt. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 01:07, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
