prod was removed by User:Badlydrawnjeff with the comment "inherently notable reality contestent." Certainly, a few losing contestants sometimes go on to notability. This is not one of them; after losing on the show, she finds herself just another struggling model and five years will be forgotten completely. I don't think we intend Misplaced Pages to be a Who's Who of losing game show contestants. Mikeblas 17:45, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, contestent on America's Next Top Model, absolutely confers notability. --badlydrawnjeff talk 17:48, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- All that confers is the ability to look hot. Caknuck 18:15, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:BIO, not notable enough for the CW to keep her bio page up on the ANTM page & not notable enough to spell her name correctly (according to IMDb, it's "Sarah Dankelman" ). Caknuck 18:15, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, she meets WP:BIO, under "notable actors and television personalities who have appeared in well-known films or television productions." --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:26, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Except she is not an actor (notable or otherwise) and appearing on a reality show is not the same as being a TV personality. Delete Emeraude 19:52, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- We certainly disagree on that, in letter and in spirit. --badlydrawnjeff talk 20:00, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- If you read further, WP:BIO gives criteria for notability: Features in pop culture publications; fan base; independent bio; name recognition & endorsements. I see none of those satisfied. If you can demonstrate that any of the models in AfD meet these, I'll reconsider my vote. Caknuck 20:41, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Start with any magazines that cover the show. Continue with the hundreds of fan sites for ANTM. --badlydrawnjeff talk 23:18, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

- Delete Sorry, but being a Top Model contestant just doesn't ring my notability chimes. EVula 21:24, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Not notable. Edison 23:07, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

- Delete ditto above cruft comment L0b0t 01:30, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete proper term is "game show contestant", and game show contestants are not inherently notable (to put it mildly). Xtifr tälk 08:54, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
