Mimi Kirkland
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Child actress that only gets the most passing mentions in the usual places (e.g. Variety, THR, EW, Deadline, LA Times) – she receives no in-depth coverage that I can see. Certainly fails WP:GNG, and likely fails WP:NACTOR. At best, a clear case of WP:TOOSOON. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 23:18, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Previous AfD discussion in 2012 came to the conclusion of delete, and the sourcing in the current article is basically non-existent, so this may even qualify for "speedy delete"(?). --IJBall (contribs • talk) 23:24, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Page qualifies for BLP PROD because it is completely unsourced. Regardless, subject is only mentioned in passing in reliable sources. Meatsgains (talk) 02:14, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep and source: The previous AfD was FOUR years ago... she's still acting, so I think, if sourcing can be improved, she meets NACTOR.   Montanabw (talk)  05:56, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
 * [sigh...] Did you read the nominating statement?! – I checked the usual places for RS before bringing this here, and all there were were "passing mentions", at best. She simply hasn't gotten a significant enough role at this point to have generated "notable" press coverage. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 06:14, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: aside from the fact that the sole reference is IMDb, she is a very young child actress whose career consists of recurring roles on two consecutive relatively little-known TV series beginning 2014 (per IMDb) and one credit a year earlier. Way TOO SOON. This article has stage mother written all over it. Quis separabit?  20:11, 3 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment: A TV show on the Disney channel is a pretty big deal for a child actor. While I agree that the username of the article's primary editor does raise a COI concern, we need to assess the article itself on its merits.    Montanabw (talk)  18:10, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * And the "merits" are a lack of significant, independent coverage. IOW, WP:TOOSOON. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 18:17, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete We need a lot more than IMDB to keep an article on a child of 12.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:51, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and Redirect only if needed instead as the only longest work is 22 episodes and there's nothing convincing at all from there. SwisterTwister   talk  05:25, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
