Keep Very much a WP:HEY candidate; being a co-host of a major syndicated show for fifteen years easily clinches WP:N and sourcing to get her over GNG should be very easy. Nathannah • 📮 19:03, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ : I don't find much coverage, this reads like a rewritten press release with no real author [1]. Gnewspapers brings up a similarly named individual on Broadway in the 1970s, I'm unsure if it's the same person. Oaktree b (talk) 21:29, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It actually is the same person. She performed in Broadway before her time on the Apollo. – The Grid (talk) 14:38, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There has to be newspaper or textbook sources, I'm just in disbelief there's limited sources. – The Grid (talk) 15:10, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: The only sources I found are passing mentions or not reliable. — Itzcuauhtli11 (talk) 14:54, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I have added sourced content to the article. I invite editors to re-visit and possibly re-evaluate it. Eddie Blick (talk) 21:00, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Great job, Teblick! I was getting there with internet sources but the newspaper sources definitely helped here. Keep per WP:HEY. – The Grid (talk) 12:37, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@The Grid, I'm glad that I could help. Eddie Blick (talk) 15:36, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Want to ping the previous delete votes (Oaktree b and Itzcuauhtli11) if they wish to re-elevate their stance, as the article has improved greatly since their votes. – The Grid (talk) 12:45, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
weak keep the coverage is better, with the new sources added. Appears mostly local coverage, but it spans several decades, so shows notability. Looks good, not great, but enough for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 13:18, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
