Delete Redirect as 4meter4 has suggested – The subject’s principal claim to notability from the external links in the article and my WP:BEFORE searches seems to be nine months, c. 70 episodes, as a relatively minor character on a UK soap opera, plus other one-off appearances. None of those are supported by decent secondary sources, so I suggest that the subject meets neither WP:NACTOR nor WP:BASIC. I also note that the article seems to have been almost perpetually unsourced. SunloungerFrog (talk) 10:37, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. There is no proof of all the series she starred in Google search result and the two sources in the article are from IMDb and one other website that I do not know its purpose. This actress fails WP:NACTRESS and WP:GNG. Mekomo (talk) 13:23, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to List of former Emmerdale characters per WP:ATD. She has only had one notable role, and the role is cover at that article. WP:NACTRESS requires a subject have multiple notable parts, and that hasn’t been demonstrated. Also, fails WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 15:42, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect: Per above, only one notable role. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 03:37, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
