college basketball player, then high school dance coach and non-notable acting role. A few sources, none reliable. This has been in WP for 25 months now. DGG ( talk ) 18:24, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete Her acting is son non-notable that the film Going the Distance that she played the role of a cheerleader in (apparently not rating having her character be given a name), seems to not be one of the three films of that name we have an article on.

  • Delete - I agree, does not meet notability requirements. She's done a lot, but I also know a dozen people with credentials like she has. Bali88 ( talk) 20:54, 18 March 2014 (UTC) reply
  • DO NOT DELETE THIS ARTICLE, PLEASE - This is an article I put together for Caysie, my wife, to help boost our communities reputation. Although, she is not a Hollywood star nor a Broadway dancer, she is very important and has made a significant contribution to society. She is a outstanding role model to her young fan who do view Wikipedia. I may not know much about building Wikipedia articles but I do know that this article was accepted at the time and should remain accepted. Besides, what's the harm?

Unfortunately none of those reasons you've stated adds to her notability and there are specific policies that address all of them (including one that directly lists "what's the harm?" as a no-no WP:NOHARM). She sounds like a wonderful talented woman and she is lucky to have a husband who cares so much, but unfortunately wikipedia isn't the place for boosting reputations or gaining publicity. Also, none of these arguments will gain any votes with anyone. What *will* help is if you can demonstrate she meets notability policies. It may be a good time to review them and figure out whether she meets them. If not, a better strategy would be to create/maintain a website for her specifically. :-) Bali88 ( talk) 22:47, 20 March 2014 (UTC) reply
