The result was   delete. Discarding unproductive "is (not) notable in my opinion" and "(does not) meet guideline" comments, what we have here is a biography of an individual for whom the existence of significant coverage in independent reliable sources has not been proven.

Mishavonna Henson

Semi-finalist on American Idol that fails WP:MUSIC. Aspects (talk) 21:21, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Although she didn't make it to the Top 12, she is an actress that has been featured in many known shows, such as Fraiser and she has also released an EP prior to idol which makes her notable enough. Facha93 (talk) 00:28, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Her filmography consists of redlinks and two series with one episode each, one of which her character does not have a name. This shows she fails WP:ENTERTAINER.  She was a semi-finalist on American Idol and her EP is released on an independent record label that does not even have a wikiarticle.  This shows she fails WP:MUSIC.  She also lacks the reliable sources to pass WP:BIO. Aspects (talk) 01:01, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Now her character has a name and in the redlinks movies she had a protagonic role, in Plastic Horses , Double Negatives and Andrew's Alteration. Facha93 (talk) 19:03, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * And how do her roles show that she passes any of the criteria listed in WP:ENTERTAINER? Aspects (talk) 01:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * She is notable as said in WP:ENTERTAINER because she has participated in many stage performances sucha as Rhoda in “Bad Seed”, Maria in “West Side Story” and Margot Frank in “The Diary of Ann Frank” at the La Mirada Theatre. She has also received the “Certificate of Merit Award” for female vocal solo at the Assemblies of God “National Fine Arts Festival” in North Carolina in August 2008 after having won in regional competitions, this is also a prove of her notability. Facha93 (talk) 23:15, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I guess I will have to ask more specifically, which of the three criteria listed in WP:ENTERTAINER does she pass? She has not had significant roles in multiple notable productions.  The only roles she had in notable productions have been Frasier and Unfabulous, and neither of those roles were significant. Aspects (talk) 23:34, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete per WP:ENTERTAINER. Just because the roles she played in have names does not make them significant roles. Furthermore, I would make the observation that none of the references cited are INDEPENDENT of the subject. Ohconfucius (talk) 04:11, 10 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep the simple fact that, according to wikipedia (both here and on Train's "Drops of Jupiter" page) "in the weeks following her elimination, "Drops of Jupiter" returned to the Billboard Hot Digital Songs chart, with its return being attributed to Henson's performance." If nothing else, she is a significant footnote to this song. In addition, she will be opening for country music legend Crystal Gayle on Sept. 27th, '09. Her acting and American Idol career are definitely not the end of the story for this young singer.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scarrett1031 (talk • contribs) 17:36, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep already said all my points above. Facha93 (talk) 23:44, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: Opening for someone one time at a county fair is not a notable event. Her version of the song did not chart and I cannot find any reliable sources to backup the chart position.  It was added to that article by an anon user and those were their only edits. Aspects (talk) 19:55, 11 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete Fails WP:BIO per Ohconfucius. Ray  Talk 18:52, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep does not fail WP:BIO.--Judo112 (talk) 20:22, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * All references also point to notability for mishavonna.--Judo112 (talk) 20:23, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Which references? The IMDB page, the blog, or her Myspace page, or her promoter's website? Ray  Talk 03:11, 14 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep Reaches notability in my opinion (Kyleofark (talk) 01:35, 13 September 2009 (UTC))
 * Delete acting roles not big enough for WP:ENTERTAINER. Music career has nothing that satisfies WP:MUSIC. Someone else charting doesn't make her notable. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Duffbeerforme (talk) 08:39, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
