Appears to be a non-notable porn actress. I can't find any assertions of relevance in the article or any reliable sources through Google, so it should go unless anyone can argue otherwise. h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 05:42, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete: Can't think of any "keep" arguments for this person. - Rjd0060 (talk) 05:46, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete: Even though I apparently created this entry, she is not notable and I can't think of any good reason to keep the article. This is really weird because I don't know who she is, and I have no memory of creating a Wiki entry for her. Hmmm... --Celtic Jobber (talk) 06:01, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep There are actually a lot of sources on her. They're individually borderline as reliable sources, but they're not anonymous blogs, and there are a lot of them, which meets Notability.

 * The following are written or published by her, so don't establish notability, but will be useful to write the article if kept.

 * Keep per AnonEMouse. Videmus Omnia Talk  21:22, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. We really have to consider the reliability of these sources before voting keep, but I think it's the long interviews that make the keep arguments possible, as the self-published and directory-style sources are not an indicator of notability. Do you agree?-h i s  s p a c e   r e s e a r c h 01:21, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Interview? These people aka personas are borderline fictional. JUst because it is written as an interview does it mean that there were ever two people involved. Victuallers (talk) 22:32, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I think the ainews.com and avn.com sources combined are just enough to pass WP:N. I don't think lukeisback.com and rogreviews.com can be used to establish notability. Epbr123 (talk) 11:02, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep AnonEMouse has found sources and I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I would be much happier if there was a clear pointer to something she did that would say to the high heavens: "Samantha Sterlyng does meet WP:BIO". Tabercil (talk) 14:22, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
