- Delete: WP:BEFORE brings up nothing to suggest pass of WP:GNG, nor a pass of WP:JOURNALIST. nearlyevil 665 17:11, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. I didn't found sufficient coverage that meets general notability guidelines. Rondolinda ( talk) 18:52, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. I couldn't find any in-depth coverage. Tec Tom ( talk) 14:37, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete back when this article was created in 2006 Wikipedia was the wild west with very little actual notability guidelines and the ones that did exist were blatantly disregarded. When the only source we can find on an individual is the bio published by their employer we have no sign of notability. There is nothing at all to sugget that Perino is notable.

- Delete: Doesn't meet notability criteria. Fails GNG. TheDreamBoat ( talk) 01:01, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete The article lacks notability, and has no reliable information source. Aloolkaparatha ( talk) 06:43, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
- Strong keep - Note to closer: The above votes merely looked at the article in its current poor state, or folks didn't do adequate investigation into the notability of the individual. With just 10 minutes of research I've beefed up the lead graf with: "She was named Kentucky Sportscaster of the Year in 2009 and 2010 and in 2011 was the first woman elected to the board of the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association," with references from a reliable established newspaper. With these accomplishments, she quite reasonably crosses into the domain of notable, having been a national news anchor, an award winner, and the first woman to be a board member of the leading professional body. -- Fuzheado | Talk 08:35, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

- Keep I think the sources identified and added by Fuzheado establish WP:BASIC notability, and this in-depth 2012 feature in TOPS Magazine has helped further develop the article with additional biographical and career information. Beccaynr ( talk) 04:22, 30 June 2021 (UTC) Also, the previous AfD discussion in 2017 that closed as a speedy keep is mentioned on the Talk page of the article, with a list of sources.
