The article Rebecca Fordyce has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:

Rebecca Fordyce's page is a legitimate entry. As a celeb journalist, Bec Fordyce has legitimate notability. Tone has been edited to neutral (sorry). Naturally, her websites are the most credible sources; as Rebecca does, actors generally lack scholarly entries. I'm just starting out with profiles, so if you have objections and instructions, I will edit and shift style as necessary.
 * Hello. You might like to read WP:ENT for guidelines on notability for entertainers.  WP:Reliable sources is also useful, for info on what sort of sources are considered reliable enough to support the assertion of notability.  A person's own website is a WP:Primary source, and therefore not a reliable source for a Wikipedia article.  Thanks, MuffledThud (talk) 11:31, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

All websites listed belong to companies, agencies and production companies, that work with Rebecca; as far as I know the websites not maintained in anyway by Rebecca herself. As for addressing the notability issues, I will do some further research on her album and DJing, as that is what has earned her following in Australia.

Best, Mike
