Saige Thompson

Non-notable actress. 10 roles in 3 years, including one TV series that lasted only 5 episodes. Fails WP:BIO, WP:V, WP:N, WP:RS, etc. Valrith 19:55, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: guest starred in ER and Coldcase. Also part of the main cast for a tv series. Mathmo ^Talk 22:45, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - this actress is plenty notable and currently active in the industry. --Evb-wiki 22:48, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per the reasoning above. --xDanielx^Talk 22:50, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Per above. NSR77 ^T_C 23:14, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I was the one who objected to the proposed deletion. She has already had enough roles to be notable, plus she is still active.--Svetovid 09:04, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete What are the keep voters basing their opinions on? The article is a very-stubby-stub which does nothing to establish the notability of the subject. If her various roles were in some way prominent in the various series mentioned, then the article needs to say so. Also, to keep we'd need at least one reliable source. Everybody has an imdb page, and a I can't work out in what way an internet bio of George Clooney establishes the notability of Saige Thompson. AndyJones 12:46, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I replaced the previously inserted wrong link.--Svetovid 18:01, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, notable for above reasons. No good reason to delete it that I can see. --Belovedfreak 16:10, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I don't understand? What "above reasons"? I don't see anything in the article or any of the keep votes above that establishes the notability of this actress. As I've said above, if the parts she has played are significant or prominent then the article needs to say so before notability is asserted, and at least one reliable source must be provided before notability is established. Being "in" a TV show doesn't by itself make you notable: for all any reader can tell she played "teenager standing in background" or something. AndyJones 16:19, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - actor has had a cast role in a TV series. One could argue the TV series was also non-notable, but it did receive press coverage so meetsWP:BIO for me. -- Whpq 19:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. You're asserting knowledge that isn't in the article. What press coverage? What reliable source do you have that isn't in the article? If you want this kept, please add your source to the article. AndyJones 09:58, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Reply - According to WP:BIO, an actor with a significant role in a notable production would pass. As part of the regular cast of a TV show, she meets the element of having a significant role. The show itself was covered in the media, for example this USA Today article so I would say that there is notability to the show meeting the condition of notable production. -- Whpq 16:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete per nom and per AndyJones. No sources, no assertions of notability, not a sliver of a shred of a breath of a hint of any impact on the world nor of anyone or anything saying anything at all. WP is not a directory of minor actors, nor is it IMDB Lite. --Calton | Talk 03:25, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As per above. TruthCrusader 09:42, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per discussion by TruthCrusader, Whpg, et al. An awful article, but it can be rescued. Bearian 16:23, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added TV Guide. This can be fixed per WP:HEY. Bearian 16:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
