WP:TOOSOON. The article was draftified by me, but the creator moved it back to mainspace. The actor has played significant role in just one drama series The Catch (TV series) [1]. She also co-starred in the film A Futile and Stupid Gesture (film) [2], the article doesn't mention much about her role just states that she joined the ensemble. The rest of the roles are all guest appearances. [3] and [4] are just interviews with the subject. So from what I see, the subject currently fails WP:NACTOR since there is no evidence of "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions" and also fails WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO.

- She has appeared in a significant number of TV series, and currently has a major role in Resident Alien [1], so keep. RGCorris (talk) 10:31, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
- RGCorris, appearing in a large number of TV series doesn't establish notability unless the roles are "significant". Ashleyyoursmile! 11:36, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
She's got a significant role in [Resident Alien] which has been mentioned in the media. So that's significant roles in two tv series, and multiple interviews with the subject. I also think a good definition of significant for these purposes is whether she has a name role,and she has a name role in many more than two series; she's mentioned in a bunch of wikipedia articles, for that reason. People are likely to want to know what else she's done, and look to wikipedia for that, which seems like it's what the encyclopedia is here for. I'd add that wikipedia has a huge problem with not covering significant women, so we should maybe think about that as well before deleting articles about them. KEEP.

Also her career spans more than a decade at this point, so I don't think "too soon" makes much sense here. NoahB (talk) 14:52, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

KEEP I agree with NoahB. There also seem to be a lot of articles about people less notable than actors from television series (such as a lot of YouTubers), and don't see why being a major cast member a TV series is not enough for notability.
