Unremarkable reporter on local-market Canadian news and co-host of breakfast show. Four references: two from tv stations employing her, one interview from a non-notable community newspaper type website, and one dead link. Purely promotional. There are thousands of such reporters worldwide - there's no benefit in having bios of local TV personalities. Declined speedy delete. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 19:42, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Advertising. a little insignificant 20:43, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom: non-notable person. References given do no provide significant coverage/discussion in independent sources. That she exists and has a job is evident--but this does not make her an encyclopedic character. Drmies (talk) 21:09, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep: The local area in question is the largest city in Canada. It may be worthwhile to factor in her value in particular to Canadian readers, versus only internationally. I also disagree that this is advertising. We would be lucky if all promo articles look this understated. Her trip to the US with Frank Stronach is also of note, but again not really huge. Perhaps as co-host she should be merged into CP24 Breakfast (and given a short bio there) - BalthCat (talk) 02:50, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to CP24 Breakfast. The article isn't advertising, but IMO the subject's notability is marginal, at least for now. Redirecting to the show on which she appears seems to be a reasonable alternative. PKT(alk) 14:29, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Trivial mentions in the media don't make her notable, nor does being in a large market. Her job puts her on TV, but visibility is not notability. Nothing like notable awards or anything that seperate her from the thousands of other local reporters who are just as non-notable. A redirect wouldn't bother me, but she doesn't merit a stand alone article. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:32, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
