Draft:Molly Brown (American actress)
| Submission declined on 1 August 2024 by DoubleGrazing (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Resubmitted without any meaningful improvement, therefore the previous decline still stands. If the author keeps doing that, this draft may be rejected outright without the option to resubmit.
Moreover, I have gone through the sources, and can confirm that they do not establish notability per WP:GNG. The only one that provides significant coverage is the Gazette piece, and it's based on an interview. In any case, it alone isn't enough. I also don't see anything there that would amount to notability per WP:NACTOR.

Comment: It is pointless and disruptive to re-submit with zero improvement. Theroadislong (talk) 17:28, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: A person can hardly be "best known" for a "breakthrough" role in a show that hasn't aired yet. As said before, much here is unverified, or very poorly verified. And I still see totally unencyclopedic material in the article, including in the infobox--you put her two non-notable brothers in there? And please clean up the references: no bare URLs, thank you. Drmies (talk) 17:09, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: If the Showtime series "Dexter: Original Sin" is not even out yet this may all be WP:TOOSOON. Theroadislong (talk) 16:53, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: There are a lot of unsourced personal details here, where did they come from? Theroadislong (talk) 16:13, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: It’s a stretch of the imagination to say she has “starred”. in anything. Her character in Conviction (2016 TV series) gets only a passing mention, her character in High Maintenance is not even mentioned in the article? Theroadislong (talk) 16:11, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: WP:IMDb is NOT a reliable source. Theroadislong (talk) 14:59, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: not clear how they pass WP:NACTOR? Theroadislong (talk) 14:50, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: After a huge reference cleanup, first source is decent but everything else is a mere passing mention. Also fails WP:NACTOR at the same time, I don't see any significant roles. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 20:04, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
