Nina Mercedez

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable porn actress; fails to satisfy any inclusion criteria, including WP:BIO and WP:PORNBIO. Valrith 21:36, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. The subject seems to meet the first and fifth criteria of WP:PORNBIO. Mercedez was a contender for the 2003 AVN Best Starlet Award. Also, she appeared on the front cover of notable pornographic magazines. She also was featured in the show Skin, and has also co-written a book. Nishkid64 (talk)  21:46, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - The first criteria is for winners of a well-known award, such as those listed in Category:Adult movie awards or Category:Film awards or from a major pornographic magazine, which Mercedez hasn't done. The fifth criteria is for being featured multiple times in mainstream media, which she also has not done.  Appearing on the cover of magazines is not a criterion, and the book in question is a) not notable and b) not authored by Mercedez, but by Dan Anderson (http://catalog.loc.gov/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?v3=1&ti=1,1&SEQ=20070509163358&Search%5FArg=how%20to%20have%20a%20xxx&Search%5FCode=TALL&CNT=25&PID=15059&SID=4).

 * Delete: Does not meet standards of WP:BIO or WP:PORNBIO. Wikipedia should not be a search engine for the adult film world. Non-notable actors should be deleted.WikiFishy 01:20, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, per Nishkid64 article meet WP:PORNBIO criteria. Carlosguitar 10:39, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Which should be sufficient in itself (db-recreated). Nothing has changed since AfD last deleted this article. Valrith 20:42, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I was asked to comment as an admin with some porn article experience. :-). The deleted version of Mercedes (porn star) is recognizable as an ancestor of this article, but this article is roughly twice as long, with many of the appearances and references being new. Not a speedy as recreated. Will need to research a bit to give keep/delete opinion. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 13:42, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: I have provided info on the talk page with a least 5 reasons and appearing on skin the tv show and being nominated for an AVN plus working for vivd entertainment should be notable enoughDwanyewest 00:27, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been added to the WikiProject Pornography list of deletions. AnonEMouse (squeak) 13:53, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. She has multiple independent sources writing articles about her and has won multiple awards, the Latin Entertainment & Video Expo, the several Ms Nudes, and Hustler Honey, which isn't being a Playmate, but twice is notable. I'm going to improve the references a bit. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:32, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Her AVN Award nomination and TV appearances make her notable. Epbr123 15:42, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
