Article cites no sources demonstrating notability, reads like an advertisement  J N  466  18:17, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - article does not cite any references to establish notability. I can find no reliable third-party references on Google, though my search was not incredibly thorough. ItsZippy (talk) 20:16, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - as per my most recent edit to the page here. I noticed that the version that was up when afd was nominated (seen here) was a direct copyright from the woman's website. That version was posted by User:ChristyCote. I reverted the edit, and there are now four references, and no indication that the page has a COI problem with the earlier edits. If the recent information from her website (which claims appearances in several notable media venues) can be corroborated elsewhere and incorporated into the page, I feel she may pass notability. Anyways, giving it that chance to be improved to the point of passing notability is pretty implausible if her page is deleted, so I say bombard the thing with maintenance tags and let it collect some fixes. I know jacksquat about dancers and didn't really search for refs thoroughly, though, anybody here feeling super not lazy about the google?  Sloggerbum  ( talk ) 05:31, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: We cannot, of course, advocate keeping an article because the subject's website makes claims of notability. We can only do so if reliable, third-party sources are proffered - not suggested, not inferred, but if they are produced and included in the article.  That being said, searches are turning up the subject's website, this article and Wiki mirrors, YouTube, blogs, Facebook, Twitter, and the usual array of self-promotional sites.  A Google News search, by contrast, turns up zero hits.   ῲ Ravenswing ῴ  16:25, 27 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - I'm pretty sure that the web pages for entertainers and others in artistic endeavours usually make claims that sound like they would be notable. However, this needs to be borne out through coverage in reliable sources, which are not evident for this person.  None of the sourcing in the article represents independent coverage and the best I could manage searching are some passing mentions like this, and this.  This confirms she teaches tango but not much else. -- Whpq (talk) 14:19, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
