Another reality tv bio where the only notability is due to the program. Similar to a spate of Survivor contestant articles recently. Outside her reality star coverage, does not meet WP:GNG. Would have restored redirect, but that is no longer an option due to recent discussions at ANI, since it was contested. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:34, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep New York Times is about as solid as it gets. Other sources only help confirm GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 00:45, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: @Onel5969: This appears to be a case of Wikipedia:Overzealous deletion. The comparison of the subject to a Survivor contestant is categorically flawed and completely misleading, as the two are simply not the same. For one, the New York Times does not dedicate entire articles to the likes of a Survivor contestant, however, the publication did just that on the subject, Heather Gay, this past February. Despite your proclivity to censure this article, the subject is a notable public figure. Since March of this year the article has received 11,393 pageviews.

Keep: As an entertainer with TV show on major network she qualifies. See WP:ENT.Kakara69 (talk) 15:30, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
