Talk:Dre Davis

Declined, sort of
I'm declining this since she has gained a little more prominence since May due to the show Pretty Little Liars. However at the same time that seems to be all that she's really known for, as her role in Project Runway was pretty minor. She was only in the show for four episodes, which isn't really all that much, considering that the models aren't featured nearly as heavily as the designers are. I'm going to ping the closing admin to see what his thoughts are. I'm thinking that this might warrant a second AfD, but my general idea is to move it back to the mainspace and then turn this into a protected redirect to prevent it being moved back to the mainspace. I'd like to have his thoughts on this though, since the prior AfD centered predominantly on her appearance on Project Runway. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  08:52, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I think you are probably right to decline the G4 speedy delete as there are some additional sources in the article that were not present in the version deleted at AFD (and they were not mentioned on the AFD), although I'm not sure how good these sources are, and the new season of Pretty Little Liars has begun in which she has a recurring role (although not main cast), which was not true at the time of the AFD.
 * However I personally can't see that she "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions" as WP:ENT says and I am sceptical that there is enough coverage to meet the main notability guideline. I would therefore be sceptical that the article would survive a second AFD. Davewild (talk) 19:12, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I added the new sources, but I need to note that these were all pretty much existent when the last AfD ran so it's likely that these were seen by people searching at that AfD. The only difference is that now the episodes of PLL have aired. I'm going to go ahead and redirect this to the character page for PLL. Her other roles have been minor so that's really the only thing she's known for. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  04:02, 9 July 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm redirecting this once again. She's been in two films, but neither of them appear to have received the coverage necessary to show that she would gain notability from starring in them. As far as Wikipedia is concerned, just being in something is not enough to show notability - the films themselves would need to be notable, as it's expected that Davis would continue to look for work and (as a result) star in films. That's considered to be a given, so the notability has to come from coverage for those films that would be considered in-depth and reliable. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  03:37, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
