[edit] Julie Gentry
This person appeared on one season of a reality television show, and did nothing else. This is not notable, and in particular, fails WP:BIO. NatusRoma | Talk 23:33, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
- For similar reasons, I am bundling the following pages with this nomination:
- Keep Kyle and delete the other two. Acting in a show is notable, appearing in a reality show is not, unless you do something notable on the show or achieve media coverage on your own. Articles assert neither. --Aguerriero (talk) 04:46, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- I agree: Keep Kyle and delete the other two. Kyle Brandt is a regular on Days of Our Lives. Doc502 16:12, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Lindsay. She also spent over a year as a morning-drive DJ on Q100 in Atlanta -- on a show that had pretty good Arbitron ratings, to boot. My understanding is that she still works in broadcast media (see the Q100 article). GGreeneVa 04:28, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- According to WWWQ (FM), Brien is "[c]urrently in Tampa working in television". That doesn't mean that she's actually on television, or doing anything else notable. I would also argue that a one-year stint as a morning-drive DJ doesn't make a person notable, unless such a person becomes particularly famous or controversial in that role.

- Fair point -- so I looked around and found that she does, in fact, have a show. Link: http://www.thespotonline.tv/.
- I have to disagree with this decision. Julie (Oliver) Gentry was one of the most important people to appear on Real World---they consider her the "touchstone" character and one of the most relatable. She also appeared in a few things, including fellow roommate/castmate Norman Korpi's The Wedding Video in 2000. She may not be a star like Jacinda Barrett, but she's made a name for herself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.155.3.67 (talk) 16:46, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

- I understand where you were coming from -- it looks like the Lindsey Brien and WWWQ articles both need edits to reflect new information. If the premise that she hadn't done anything after RW had been true, I'd probably say delete the article as well. --GGreeneVa 18:27, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
