 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This broadway actor seems to fail WP:ENT. She is listed in some RSs as a member of a cast, but not discussed. As cited in the article, she was interviewed with another cast member of a musical in which she was (and may still be) performing in a Time Out Chicago issue here, but that and the cast listings doesn't seem to get her over WP:BIO / WP:GNG. She might be notable for WP purposes someday, but it doesn't look like she is there yet. Novaseminary (talk) 20:16, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

I feel that she is notable, but I am not going to waist a lot of time arguing. If other editors comment they agree with deletion and no one wants to save it, I won't argue with a speedy deletion tag to speed it up. Make sure I am notified, because I want to make sure I save a copy of it for when she's more notable. JDDJS (talk) 20:27, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. Aside from her other credits, she originated a principal role in a major Broadway musical, and she has the female lead in a heavily promoted, Will Farrell-produced, Sony film being released next week. There shouldn't be any WP:ENT issues. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 21:10, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I hadn't seen this. A Google news search of her name and Will Farrell only comes up with 4 blog-like hits and a search for her name and the name of the movie only comes up with two. And most of the coverage does not mention her at all (Entertainment Weekly's blog, a local NBC affiliate, e.g.) According to this she is not a lead character (4 males are), but she is definitely in it (see the last paragraph). I'm not sure her role would qualify as a major role per WP:ENT ("Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions."). Her Adams Family role would be one, but I'm not sure this role in this movie would qualify as major to get her the multiple required. Novaseminary (talk) 21:36, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment. With regard to searching for her name with "Will Ferrell", Ferrell is only involved with the film as a producer, so I would not necessarily expect articles about the film to mention both Rodriguez and Ferrell. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:11, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment That is why I found it odd that I came up with even less hits when searching for her name and the movie title. Novaseminary (talk) 13:35, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - After doing more research into her one movie role, I do not think it meets WP:ENT. She is not listed as one of the five main characters on the film's official site (in the "about" section, under "cast"). Despite Hullaballoo Wolfowitz's claim above, she does not appear to have the "female lead", somebody named Nicole Weaver appears to. Novaseminary (talk) 22:58, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:03, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. I'm giving the subject the benefit of the doubt as to notability. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 14:01, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Per what policy or guideline? I would be willing to bet that she will meet WP:N someday since she will probably get a major role in a film or another major theater role. But WP:CRYSTAL would seem to apply. Why not userfy the article? That way, if she subsequently meets WP:ARTIST, then it can come back. If she never does, then it stays off mainspace.

 * Per WP:BASIC. There are sufficient sources out there to justify this article under the general notability criteria: see Time Out, Broadway.com, The New York Post. Also, you probably mean WP:ENTERTAINER, not WP:ARTIST. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 15:02, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
