 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as I actually speedied this but it was removed and my comments are exactly the same, searches found nothing better at all so there's no better improvement. SwisterTwister   talk  18:55, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - for two reasons. Firstly, because of the referenced Langley Advance article, an independent reliable source, which when combined with the less-substantial Georgia Straight article and a little benefit-of-the-doubt, just about meets WP:GNG. Secondly, because in my opinion a television presenter (note, not producer) who is known and recognizable to potentially millions of people (the Greater Vancouver area, with a population of around three million) is notable.

 * Being a media personality who is associated with local media markets, rather than a national platform, can be enough of a claim of notability if the article is sourced well enough to fulfill WP:GNG — but it does not constitute an automatic inclusion freebie for an unsourced or poorly-sourced article. Smalltown community weekly newspapers are a class of sourcing that we deprecate as being unable to contribute to GNG, because they're not widely distributed (or widely archived, so that the content would remain verifiable even if the website ever disappeared), so the Langley Advance contributes nothing here. Metropolitan alt-weeklies do count for more, since they are archived in major public library systems like the VPL, but the Georgia Straight reference is a blurb and thus cannot pass GNG as the article's only legitimate source. And I just did a ProQuest search to see if any daily newspaper coverage could be added, but she garners just 14 namechecks, and no substantive coverage, in that database too — and if even the Vancouver Sun and The Province (the gold-standard sources for Vancouver-related topics) never covered her in any substantive way, then there's no real chance of meeting GNG at all unless very maybe something changes in the future.
