Vanessa Lindores

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A non-notable former child actor who fails WP:BASIC and WP:ENTERTAINER according to Google web, news and book searches. The latter does appear to have turned up a brief reference in a book on motherhood, under her hyphenated married name. If so, it may be noteworthy that her acting career was not deemed notable enough for mention. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:26, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

 * In fairness, some might feel her featured on-camera role in You Can't Do That on Television meets the first criterion of WP:ENT: "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." I look forward to see what the consensus is. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:21, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Her role on YCDT would probably merit inclusion if it could be properly sourced; IMDb alone doesn't cut it in that regard. Possibly a keep if it can be referenced and cleaned up sufficiently, but in the absence of real sources, delete. Bearcat (talk) 21:54, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I couldn't find what I would call a real bona fide WP:RS: there's certainly a few blogs and fansites. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 03:12, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, because cast listings of finshed projects can be sourced to the project itself, we can accept even per IMDB that she was in the project. IMDB is just no good for showing notability. As for RS, the woman is married now.. her name is Vanessa Lindores-Farah and her work CAN be confirmed in a few sources that are not not fansites or blogs.

 * I see three appearances of her name, but nothing that confirms her role in You Can't Do That on Television. That said, I'd still be happy to withdraw this and leave it with a references needed tag, as it's pretty clear she was a featured player on the show for years, even if we can't find the RS at this very moment.

 * WITHDRAWN by nominator. With all due respect to Bearcat's delete !vote, I don't feel comfortable proceeding with this AfD on what I feel is a technicality. While I am too old to have charmed by You Can't Do That on Television myself, it appears to have been an internationally notable program -- still the subject of pop culture referencing -- and Lindores had a featured role for years satisfying WP:ENT, I now believe. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:42, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Because she grew up and left show biz far behind her, sourcing is proving to be problematic. I believe a redirect to You Can't Do That on Television is the best outcome. She is already written of there quite a bit and in context to her work in the series.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 04:21, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree and ask that the closing admin consider this request. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:51, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
