I'm working on the article

[edit]

I just started the article from a redlink, not knowing it would get a SD tag from just starting it. I'm adding Payne's credits and so on as I find them. The article already has as least 5 WP articles that link to it, so that proves substantial notability, eh? Softlavender (talk) 01:41, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wikilinks don't establish notability, although it's enough to get the DB tag declined. Per WP:N, Notability is established by coverage in multiple reliable third-party sources. Can you provide any articles or other mainstream coverage of her? That will be helpful. Burpelson AFB (talk) 02:21, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Will try. I see some online, but I'd rather just get several of her credits down first. Which is rather difficult because there is no exhaustive British source for major London theatre credits the way there is in the U.S. for NYC credits. Plus "Sarah Payne" is the name of the girl who got famously murdered. Softlavender (talk) 02:27, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

More references to cull

[edit]

Here are some further references in case anyone wants to expand the article (also note the extensive credits in the two CVs posted in the article — I haven't added but a few those many credits). Anyway, here are some articles and books to comb through: Articles, Books and Articles. Plus there's a lot more detail than is currently present in the Wiki article (roles, more shows, articles/reviews) on a regular Google Web search: Google Advanced Search.-- Softlavender (talk) 03:28, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And just in case the CVs linked in the refs disappear from the internet, here is their content:

This is the first time I've tried to contact anyone through Wikipedia.
Due to my limited capability with computers, can I request someone to please change the Photograph that accompanies the link to the page, as it is a photograph of the late schoolgirl Sarah Payne (from her funeral service) NOT the actress - and may be upsetting for her family & friends, in addition to those searching for info on the actress. Thank you. 86.187.168.230 (talk) 02:31, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
