I'm not certain this subject, a person known for being part of a meme, meets the notability criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:03, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A reluctant keep. Good God, this is one of the most unencyclopedic topics I've seen on WP. But she does seem to meet WP:GNG, and I suppose she has made a lasting impression in her "field", in ways both good and bad. See this article: [1]. —Theodore!

Delete. With no malice toward Kimberly "Sweet Brown" Wilkins, what made her notable was the (somewhat amusing) meme that evolved from her (chance) TV interview, not some particular talent, skill or accomplishment on her part. The meme (or the YouTube video that contributed to it) has its own WP article Ain't Nobody Got Time for That, which identifies Ms. Wilkins as the "source" of the meme; hence appropriate recognition exists in WP for her only (known) contribution to popular culture. However, as of now, this is her only notable accomplishment (subsequent notices, such as the movie appearance, just reprise her interview) so WP:BLP1E applies. Unless and until she finds a way to make herself notable for something else (and not just a local advertising celebrity), the article should go. Dwpaul (talk) 04:21, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge to Ain't Nobody Got Time for That (atrocious title, btw, which isn't even linked to from her page), per WP:BLP1E. If she does other stuff, we can return back to this setup. Ansh6 6 6 01:52, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Ain't Nobody Got Time for That, per WP:BLP1E. -- Trevj (talk) 11:07, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as she meets the WP:GNG and has lasting coverage by extending past the meme to include an appearance in the 2013 Tyler Perry movie A Madea Christmas as well as her own reality show "The Sweet Browns" currently in production. Technical 13 (talk) 00:44, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Neither of which yet conveys notability. At the moment, she's only notable for one thing; when either of those are released, if she gets proper coverage on them, then we can remake the article. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 08:20, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:CRYSTAL, pending re-creation after development of her reality show. Bearian (talk) 19:56, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Ain't Nobody Got Time for That. Can easily re-create if she gets a reality show. -Drdisque (talk) 04:18, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
