I came across this after noticing the PROD for a film she was working on (Vampire's Kiss) and deciding to redirect it to her article. However I can't really see where this person is ultimately notable or that any of the claims in the article are really backed up by any RS. Her IMDb article is pretty scanty and I can't really ascertain whether or not she actually did any or most of the things that are claimed in the article as far as roles go. Either she was one of a score of uncredited extras or it didn't happen. I know that many shows go through scads of extras and many don't get any sort of official notice at all to verify that they showed up, but it's also possible due to the claims here (neighbor to Harry Styles, in the paper every week, etc) that this is a hoax. Either way, the lack of notability seems clear. The tone of this is fairly promotional as well and might be speedyable through that route, but I wanted to run this through AfD to verify if any of the claims are true or if this might be a hoax article.

 * I mean, I know that IMDb is user edited so that it's not the end and beginning of proof, but the lack of an actual entry added with the lack of RS sort of hammers home the lack of notability. Tokyogirl79  (｡◕‿◕｡)   04:29, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete as too soon. Actress has yet to receive substantial coverage in reliable independent sources or to play leading roles. Candleabracadabra (talk) 02:37, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete The main article text is the same as the biography contributed to IMDB, so qualifies as a Copyvio? Anyway, no evidence found that the subject meets WP:NACTOR at this point in her career. AllyD (talk) 06:57, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment: I took a look at the original editor's page with this edit, which is a pretty blatant hoax. It's been removed, but it kind of all but confirms my suspicions that this is a hoax article. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   07:02, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, an elaborate but blatant hoax. I took a slightly closer look at the movie and realized that not only does she claim that it's getting made by Dreamworks and Paramount, but she has two big name stars (Craig Olejnik and Ian Harding) starring in it. It'd be highly, highly unlikely that a film would have that sort of studio backing with stars with that amount of name power and not get any coverage at all. I'm tagging this as a hoax. I should've done this to start with. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   07:35, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
