Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMODEL. Appeared on two reality television seasons (Britain's Next Top Model (cycle 4) and America's Next Top Model (cycle 18)) but did not win either. No indication of notability. Linguist 111 ^Moi? Moi. 15:33, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Sources in-depth and in-depth and interview and mention and several paragraphs and in-depth (the BBC) and multiple images of her and so on. Fairly decent pageviews at 35/day (correlates with notability). Meets the GNG.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 00:12, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All of those sources (except the last) are just routine coverage of Britain's Next Top Model and America's Next Top Model, given to all contestants. The last one is a post from a LiveJournal blog, which is not a reliable source. Pageviews are irrelevant. No indication of notability. Linguist 111 ^Moi? Moi. 02:07, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That other models get coverage is irrelevant; Catherine Thomas gets coverage -- that is what matters here. There are other in-depth sources.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 15:16, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Being a model, a contestant on two reality TV shows and the subject of run-of-the-mill reality TV coverage and interviews does not make you notable. She's just a run-of-the-mill model and reality TV show contestant. Still no separate notability. Linguist 111 ^Moi? Moi. 15:49, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete: If we had more of her career besides the reality shows, it might help, but I'm not seeing it. Pageviews on wikipedia do not confer notability, nor to photoshoot articles. the interviews help, but I do agree that the standard coverage given a contestant is not quite enough. I am willing to reassess my position if there are more WP:RS provided. Montanabw^(talk) 03:42, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as the 1 confirmed Keep vote simply lists photo galleries, interviews and other trivial coverage and all of that is expected especially when it comes to entertainment subjects; none of this is establishing any actual independent notability substance, however.
