Non-notable former celebrity--now just a local DJ. Completely unreferenced for more than 18 months, so it's a BLP problem. Mikeblas (talk) 01:39, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. I added some references. Once notable, always notable. Notability does not expire. --Eastmain (talk) 01:56, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep I'd assume that the original five VJs are all notable. There's plenty to say about her. Zagalejo^^^ 02:27, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep As per WP:BIO. She "has had significant roles or been featured multiple times in...television." Just because she's out of a job now, doesn't make her non-notable. By the way, thanks; I'm going to have Video Killed the Radio Star stuck in my head all day now. Paragon12321 (talk) 02:39, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment. And per WP:BLP, "Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about living persons — whether the material is negative, positive, or just questionable — should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion, from Wikipedia articles, talk pages, user pages, and project space." While a smattering of references were added to the article after being completely unreferenced for 18 months, they still do not direclty substantiate any of the claims made in the article. The material must -- per policy-- be removed immediately, even if the article itself is not deleted as a whole. -- Mikeblas (talk) 04:52, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep per Eastmain and Zagalejo, with the addition that all MTV VJs are notable. Also, Blackwood has her show on a national satellite radio service, far from just local.Nate • (chatter) 03:07, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep I would imagine that almost all VJs are notable, but to be one of the first five? Yeah, the multiple reliable sources don't hurt either. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 03:11, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Notability isn't temporary, though I think this is far from an example where that maxim needs to be invoked. Maxamegalon2000 05:11, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep per most of the above. --JulesN Talk 05:27, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
