• Speedy keep. First of all, I have no idea why the nominator started bringing up issues relating to pornographic actresses in the AfD, when the subject was a mainstream actress and had never been involved with pornography. That itself verges on libel. Second, the subject spent four years as a cast member on Happy Days, a very well known television series. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 18:44, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I just copied the criteria for notability for all kinds of actresses, one of them being porn. She is not a porn actress so I've striken these out.

I think part of the problem is the article is not very well written and short even for a stub. The question then becomes if notability is achieved by being on one TV series as a minor character? According to WP guidelines, it seems that a minor character is not notable enough for WP. WP calls for multiple roles or a large cult following, neither of which she has. Maybe merge with her father's article? Ipromise (talk) 00:05, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
