A non notable actress. There are no refs in the article. An external link to her imdb profile exists but the website says little to support notability. WP:Before showing nothing I can see. Tagged for notability since last year and more cites since 2012. Szzuk (talk) 21:56, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Delete, I can find nothing to support notability. She comes close for WP:ENT, but subjectively not close enough. (Dushan Jugum (talk) 22:46, 13 January 2019 (UTC)).
- Keep After some reading, I am now happy that she had a 'significant role'(recurring characters) in three notable tv shows and change WP:ENT. (Dushan Jugum (talk) 19:43, 14 January 2019 (UTC)).
- Keep. IMHO, she qualifies via WP:ENT, as she has appeared in four 'notable' TV series (at least, these TV series are 'notable' enough to have their own Wikipedia pages). There are also numerous links to her page from other Wikipedia pages. Do we really want to see all of these become red-linked?? Ross Finlayson (talk) 08:32, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. "Appeared" is meaningless, especially since there were only a few appearances on those shows: four times out of 134 episodes? Seven times out of 111 episodes?
- Do we really want to see all of these become red-linked?? Delete the name, problem solved. --Calton | Talk 14:51, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
- Keep She certainly meets WP:NACTOR, with significant roles in several notable shows. I have added a reference - a book about Hercules: The Legendary Journeys - which has a chapter about her in the role of Discord (not all of it is accessible on Google Books, but I have added citations to the visible information). There is also a book about Shortland Street [1], which has no preview on Google Books - does anyone have access to it? I think it's likely that there is coverage in New Zealand newspapers and magazines, too, but for this period, they are not online, as far as I am aware.

- Keep as per RebeccaGreen. Sheldybett (talk) 09:40, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. The refs added since the start of the AfD are sufficient to satisfy gng. I'd withdraw if there wasn't a delete vote. Szzuk (talk) 09:45, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
