Apparantly a surfer babe according to the sources but its a brief flash of coverage and appears to have no real career. The sourcing is based around clickbaity flash in the pan stuff and I would suggest is not enduring. Spartaz Humbug! 23:25, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete I thought about a very weak keep for a brief femtosecond, but no. Essentially a single event, ie, going softcore, and its impact.  I suggest possibly WP:TOOSOON.  Aoziwe (talk) 09:50, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - There's actually a lot online about her - including a 60 minutes story feature on her. I'll add some more RS. She had a sponsorship deal with Billabong, and is 97 in the world female surfer...so she clearly has a profile. Deathlibrarian (talk) 10:49, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Yep there is some on line, but as far as I can see the vast majority of it is low reliability, of dubious independence, and sensationalistic. If you can find some good quality IRS you might convince me otherwise?  Aoziwe (talk) 11:08, 17 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment - I've added a bunch of extra references - I will also note she has featured on two TV programs - she has been featured on Channel 9's show 60 minutes, and she was featured on the ABC show Rush TV Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:13, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
 * You may wish to check your sources. The Daily Mail is not one I would use.  See Reliable sources/Perennial sources.  Aoziwe (talk) 11:33, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I meant to take that out - it's gone, cheers. Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:34, 17 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep. She seems to meet GNG. The article still needs improvement though. WestCD (talk) 03:36, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. I can't see the first page, but there are at least two pages written about her in Women on Waves: A Culture History of Surfing—From Ancient Goddesses and Hawaiian Queens to Malibu Movie Stars and Millennial Champions (2021). pburka (talk) 22:54, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Try this search. It shows the two pages in total, just under one page in all, and nearly half of that is primary, ie, quotes by the subject.  Aoziwe (talk) 11:11, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * That doesn't work for me, so I'll have to take your word for it. It's still significant coverage. pburka (talk) 13:52, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Not sure why not? It worked again for me just now.  Also, some of the text is about the subject's sister.   Aoziwe (talk) 23:20, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Try this search instead. Aoziwe (talk) 07:35, 23 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep - Passes WP:GNG IMHO and also some WP:BASIC can be tossed in there depending on the coverage. Also uncool to say "apparently a surfer babe." She's a model, a surfer, and an actress. Missvain (talk) 18:19, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Question: If the subject had not gone "softcore", would they have received any attention, ie, is this really a case of single event?  Aoziwe (talk) 07:35, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Aoziwe - Hypothetical doesn't matter here. She's a surfer, model, and actress. She meets general notability guidelines and her article can be expanded using WP:BASIC. Missvain (talk) 17:41, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
