Non-notable actor lacking non-trivial support. References are generally passing mentions. Appears to be

• Keep: I believe Hughes qualifies as a notable actor. She was the lead in V/H/S/2, which was a very profitable and known film in the horror genre. The franchise is relatively young and already has three installments. It went to Sundance. She's had roles in many of Adam Wingard's movies (even the title role in the case of the Laura Panic films). Her other features had festival play, which I cited as well.

There are multiple citations specifically about her and/or interviewing her. They are from notable sources. There are several citations that only have a sentence or two about her, however I would rather over-cite the entry than not provide enough information.

I also took into consideration the individual's tech background when considering notability. Hughes was a publicly known Apple employee, which was even more rare at the time than it is now. The tour guide videos were highly visible. Her video production work at Apple as well as the other infamous companies lends to her notability. Allison419 (talk) 06:52, 2 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete as per nominator, my sweeps only found a few mentions. What we really need is a few in-depth secondary sources which focus on her as an actress. Not sure about the Apple stuff. My suggestion is for the article creator to trim all the crufty sources out, as per

• Keep I like that this article is well sourced, even if the source isn't immediately about the subject. Maybe there's a guideline saying that should be cleaned up, but I don't think it's grounds for deletion. More importantly, the Wikipedia:Notability (people) page specifies the top consideration being a person with a interesting or unusual story. Apple's a very closed secret company, and one of their public figures at the time was getting naked in huge horror movies. How weird is that?? The iPod shuffle girl is the VHS girl, that's unique.

• This is hardly well sourced. Much in the same way notability is not inherited, unrelated "references" do not support the subject. Apple is hardly a closed company and there is nothing unique about being naked in a movie, horror or not. Or for that matter and combination of the two. reddogsix (talk) 03:06, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong Keep I was happy to find hannah has an entry. I was going to make it. I'm trying to get pages up to date on Adam Wingard for the WP:HORROR after everyone in his films gained notoriety a few years ago. There were actually a lot of great details on this page I didn't know about. I had no idea about the apple videos. Civicoblivion (talk) 03:01, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Any reasons for keeping?--Tomwsulcer (talk) 10:07, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like this was originally listed for notability but I don't think that's a concern. I won't repeat all the points previously made on that, but I agree she's a notable actor. My point was that it is a quality entry that adds to Wikipedia, especially in the WP horror area where quality entries are needed. It looks like it's properly sourced, and if there's some debate about it having too many sources or that the quality of several of the sources don't merit their inclusion that's a great reason to keep it and clean it up. It includes well-rounded information, it's well-written and maintains a neutral POV. I don't see a reason not to keep it. I think it's above what's outlined in Wikipedia:Notability (people).Civicoblivion (talk) 17:51, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as per nom. Searches showed nothing beyond trivial coverage. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 17:51, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Trivial mentions do not notability make. Neutrality^talk 21:41, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. The subject is coming along, and I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up notable by WP standards, but the sourcing simply isn't there at present. Xymmax ^{So let it be written} _{So let it be done} 23:29, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
