Non-notable reality show participant. Keeps getting re-created from redirect. Fails GNG, absolutely no in-depth coverage about this person outside show.

 * Delete a non-notable reality televsion star. Wikipedia articles need reliable sources, not one tabloid mention.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:36, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Mild Keep I'd expect with that much TV time, there would be something written about her. The article has zero sources. I started the Shannon Singh article, she was only on Love Island UK for one episode and she got a whack of coverage. Would have to dig to find sources for this person, but I'm not interested in doing so. Oaktree b (talk) 19:37, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment I have added sources and tried to fix some aspects of the page. Samsmachado (talk) 20:17, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete trivial accomplishments -- the coverage is the typical tabloid style coverage the show was apparently designed to attract.  DGG ( talk ) 18:42, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Nom seems to insinuate a WP:BLP1E ("no in-depth coverage about this person outside show", presumably RHOA is the "show" in question), but sources reflect coverage for Parks' book, Covenant, Marriage Bootcamp, and the upcoming RH Ultimate Girls' Trip. It would be confusing and bad journalistic practice for these sources to not mention that Parks did nine seasons of RHOA, but this does not mean that the sources are only reflective of Parks' time on that show. Subject has sustained coverage over a decade, which strongly suggests notability. Meets WP:GNG by People article (per WP:RSP, "There is consensus that People magazine can be a reliable source in biographies of living persons"), EW coverage of RHOA, and Philadelphia Tribune article.

 * Keep per WP:BASIC/WP:GNG. Reviews of her book include The Philadelphia Tribune, Publishers Weekly and a blurb on Bravo. And there was a long-running defamation lawsuit related to a book published by someone else that included claims about her, covered in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, in addition to the extensive coverage related to her biography and television career, e.g. Atlanta Black Star/Yahoo, 2021, ET Online, 2021, Essence, 2020, BET, 2020, ET Online, 2020, Atlanta Journal Constitution, 2017, ET Online, 2017, Daily Beast, 2017, ABC News, 2016, LA Times, 2014, CNN, 2014, Variety, 2014, Glamour, 2012, People, 2012.

 * Keep the number of reviews for her book seem to smash WP:NAUTHOR and GNG. BuySomeApples (talk) 03:38, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
