Amanda Parris

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Completely unreferenced article about the business centre manager of a municipal borough's economic development office, whose strongest notability claim is that she was awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise Promotion in 2006. This award is not so "inherently" notable as to exempt her from actually having to have any reliable source coverage, however — the extent to which any award confers "notable because award" on its recipients is strictly coterminous with the extent to which reliable source media outlets report the presentation of that award as news (but even the article about the award itself is stacked onto primary sources rather than reliable ones.) About half the people named in the award article are still redlinks, and even among the blue links a significant proportion are just recursive redirects right back to the award article, and/or other people who are every bit as unreferenced as this. And even the few bluelinks for whom notability isn't actually in question, it's because they have other strong notability claims besides this award in and of itself. And on a Google search, I get no evidence of reliable source media coverage to get this Amanda Parris over WP:GNG — I only get hits for the Canadian television broadcaster, not for a business centre manager from Rotherham.

 * Update: Article has now had some sources added, but not good or notability-supporting ones. Two represent the award's own primary source content about itself, which is not the kind of sourcing it takes to make an award confer notability on its recipients because they won it; one is a mere photograph of the award being presented to her, which is not a notability-supporting source; and the last is a single newspaper article in the local newspaper, which is not enough coverage to singlehandedly get a person over WP:GNG all by itself if all the rest of the sourcing around it is non-notability-supporting junk.

 * Delete the few references just do not add up to notability. Borough business center managers are almost never notable for such.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:26, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
