Delete for lack of independent notability. Wryspy 01:36, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I think that being a Playboy centerfold is noteworthy of notability, but Playboy Cyber Girl is not Corpx 04:26, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Vague AFD statement. Are you saying that apart from her website notability is not established.  I will add a few things in the next hour or so to establish independent notability. --TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 20:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment She google tests at over 2.5 million hits and is from a notable (by wikipedia standards with 2 sisters and a cousin having articles) family (which only helps ever so slightly).--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 20:52, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
 * No. If you enter the name with "Amy McCarthy" in quotation marks so that the works have to be side-by-side, it's 80,500. And then start looking at the actual entries. A huge number of them are not about her. As for your previous remark, having a notable family does not denote individual notability. Wryspy 16:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I understand notable family does not denote individual notability, but on the margin it helps ever so slightly as I stated above.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:55, 10 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Actors and actresses-related deletions.   -- John Vandenberg 08:14, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Google "amy mccarthy" "playboy" "-com" (to remove commercial sites) and you get 61 hits - many of which are not about her. MarkBul 20:21, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:BIO and WP:N. Sources are the magazine she appeared in and web sites of questionable reliability and independence. Edison 21:31, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I thought magazine appearances support notability.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:55, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Between her two magazine appearances and her acting credits, I feel she's notable. Dismas |(talk) 04:50, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing encyclopediac at all about this. NBeale 10:53, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - an appearance in Playboy (as opposed to being a centrefold) is not notable. Her acting credits appear to be non-notable small parts.  And being related to someone notable doesn't cause it to transfer. -- Whpq 16:31, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect - The Playboy article was apparently a roundup of Cybergirls rather than a dedicated article, which is just enough to knock me off the fence on this one. However, I think she has gotten enough attention that there should be a redirect to her sister, and I favor retaining the history in case her career progresses. -- Groggy Dice T | C 01:41, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
