I just started the article from a redlink, not knowing it would get a SD tag from just starting it. I'm adding Payne's credits and so on as I find them. The article already has as least 5 WP articles that link to it, so that proves substantial notability, eh? Softlavender (talk) 01:41, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wikilinks don't establish notability, although it's enough to get the DB tag declined. Per WP:N, Notability is established by coverage in multiple reliable third-party sources. Can you provide any articles or other mainstream coverage of her? That will be helpful. Burpelson AFB (talk) 02:21, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Will try. I see some online, but I'd rather just get several of her credits down first. Which is rather difficult because there is no exhaustive British source for major London theatre credits the way there is in the U.S. for NYC credits. Plus "Sarah Payne" is the name of the girl who got famously murdered. Softlavender (talk) 02:27, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Here are some further references in case anyone wants to expand the article (also note the extensive credits in the two CVs posted in the article — I haven't added but a few those many credits). Anyway, here are some articles and books to comb through: Articles, Books and Articles. Plus there's a lot more detail than is currently present in the Wiki article (roles, more shows, articles/reviews) on a regular Google Web search: Google Advanced Search.-- Softlavender (talk) 03:28, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And just in case the CVs linked in the refs disappear from the internet, here is their content:
2004 CV: "West End credits include: SINGIN' IN THE RAIN and BARNUM (both at the London Palladium); LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (Comedy); NINE (Royal Festival Hall); THE BEST OF TIMES (Vaudeville); THE ODD COUPLE Theatre Royal, Haymarket) and ANNIE (Victoria Palace theatre). Other London Theatre: HIGH SPIRITS (Bridewell); DICK DAREDEVIL (Drill Hall); DON GIOVANNI (Greenwich Theatre); CHARLOTTE: LIFE? OR THEATRE? (Soho Theatre & Amsterdam); JUBILEE (Cardiff International Festival) and most recently THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO at the Drill Hall. Other theatre: THE FIFTEEN STREETS (Hornchurch); JUDY (Oldham); THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO (Watford); SUGAR (West Yorkshire Playhouse); GUYS AND DOLLS (Coventry) and ME AND MY GIRL (National Tour) and THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW (National Tour). Sarah played 'Emma' in Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's CRICKET at the Sydmonton Festival directed by Trevor Nunn. On television, Sarah was recently seen in the BBC's DOCTORS; other appearances include THE AGE THING; WHICH WAY TO THE WAR; SHOW STOPPERS; CALL ME MISTER and the ROYAL VARIETY SHOW."
2005 CV: "Most recently she has been working on LONGER THAN IT TAKES TO SAY GOODBYE a new piece that premiered at The Kings Head in London earlier this summer and has been appearing as a member of THE SHAKESPEARE REVUE company in this country and abroad. She played Cecily Pigeon in THE ODD COUPLE (Haymarket, London), Mary Llewellyn in THE FIFTEEN STREETS (Hornchurch), Susanna in Ranjit Bolt’s adaptation of THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO (Watford), Ruth in HIGH SPIRITS (based on BLITHE SPIRIT at the Bridewell, London), Cheri Reynolds in a national tour of RISKY KISSES and last year, Sue in YOU’RE ONLY YOUNG TWICE here at Sonning. Other roles include Audrey in LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (Comedy, London), Jenny Lind in BARNUM (London Palladium), Jerry Herman’s THE BEST OF TIMES (Vaudeville, London), NINE (Royal Festival Hall), Donna Elvira in DON GIOVANNI (Greenwich), The Countess in MARRIAGE OF FIGARO (Drill Hall), Mrs Spratt in DICK DAREDEVIL (Drill Hall), Sugar in SUGAR based on SOME LIKE IT HOT (West Yorkshire Playhouse), Judy Garland in JUDY, Lady Jacqueline in ME AND MY GIRL (National Tour) and THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW (National Tour). For television she has played Christine in DOCTORS, THE AGE THING (with Patricia Hodge), CALL ME MISTER, MAN AND MAMMALS (with Emo Philips) and WHICH WAY TO THE WAR (written by Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft)."
This is the first time I've tried to contact anyone through Wikipedia.
Due to my limited capability with computers, can I request someone to please change the Photograph that accompanies the link to the page, as it is a photograph of the late schoolgirl Sarah Payne (from her funeral service) NOT the actress - and may be upsetting for her family & friends, in addition to those searching for info on the actress. Thank you. 86.187.168.230 (talk) 02:31, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
