Sourcing

The Wordpress blog source likely falls foul of WP:RS and the obituary certainly does because it is clearly not independent of the subject. Is this person really notable? - Sitush (talk) 07:52, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Just saw this. The Wordpress blog source isn't used any longer, but there at least one obituary that is used. Do you still see an issue, Sitush? (I removed the notability tag after I had added more content and sources).–CaroleHenson (talk) 18:06, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Looks like it is ok now, thanks. I probably should ask for a newspapers.com subscription at the WP Library. - Sitush (talk) 18:16, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Filmography section

There has been a dispute about the Filmography section on a user's page and so I thought I would summarize my reasoning here in the event others may disagree with me.

I removed that section because:

1. There was only one item in the list and so the addition is essentially meaningless.
2. It calls attention to the fact that she has a small body of film experience... which is also problematic because she also did television and stage work.
3. It's generally preferable to put content in prose over lists... see WP:Prose.
4. I am not finding a guideline that states that a Filmography section is required for actors who have been in films.
5. It seems to me that it's WP:Common sense not to add sections that don't add any new information to the article.–CaroleHenson (talk) 18:10, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Agree. We also deprecate single-sentence sections. - Sitush (talk) 18:17, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
