246:- Like I said in the G4 decline rationale, the article is not "substantially identical" enough to qualify for speedy deletion; the deleted article was just the lede sentence and a small table of acting credits; there's significantly more material here. Nevertheless, a basic search isn't finding any real sources to support notability; the roles lift the article above the low low bar of A7 for me, but ultimately I think the issues from the first AfD are still true. 620:) 02 I apologize if I came across in a way that caused you to misinterpret my comments, as this is not the case. I brought it up to present an alternate point of view and stated that I was an actress to present where I was coming from. I am in no way putting myself in authority above anyone else here. However, the topic being debated here is not over this, but rather the notability of Lexi Lawson, so let's get back to discussing that. 389:, a performer is considered notable if they have had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. In the case of Lexi Lawson, stage performances would be applicable. She is performing as Eliza Schuyler Hamilton in the musical Hamilton and is considered a notable replacement according to the show's wikipedia page. She has also performed in two other national broadway tours. 1296:- This is a borderline case, with the actress attracting some notoriety for her multiple touring performances yet not getting the kind of sustained coverage that a good article needs. I'm somewhat swayed by the arguments to keep this. However, the whole situation seems to be, to put it bluntly, 'too soon'. There are reasonable points made to push this into some kind of draft space or something like that. 781:
over the role. That just leaves us with an interview with Javier Muñoz on Metro Focus (which I never have even heard of), a puff piece about what she and her co-stars look like out of the show, a brief basic bio of her Broadway.com. and the article about her in the Stir (which while it is a very in depth article about her, but is just one article). That's simply not enough to prove notability.
411:
roles. She has only had one role on Broadway, which is a replacement, not multiple. Having roles in tours are not generally a major indicator of notability, and even if they were, she only has two tour roles, and one of which is also a replacement. She might be notable eventually, but she is not yet.
900:
I still don't know what you mean. Tours are not "considered to be productions at the peak of the profession." A production at the peak of a stage actor's profession would be the original cast of a Broadway show, which she has never been a part of. She a small unnamed part in one notable film and she
719:
First of all, that is not true. Seth Stewart who plays Jefferson/Lafayette and Nicholas Christopher who pays Washington both do not have pages. Second of all, while Hamilton itself is a very large part of current pop culture, that doesn't mean that everybody involved in it is automatically notable.
780:
I did a Google News search for her, which yielded 7,290, which sounds impressive. However, going through the sources, you find that almost all of the results are about Hamilton and only briefly mentions her. Out of the ones that are actually about her, most are just press releases about her taking
352:
I can agree to this and would be happy to host the article as a draft in user space myself. However, I still believe that the article should be kept published. If it is taken away, she will be the only PRINCIPAL cast member of Hamilton without an article on Knowledge. It is obvious that she is not

I have added additional information on Lexi Lawson, including her work composing movie score and additional television roles. According to Knowledge's notability guidelines, "A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are

We just had this debate less than 4 months ago. The consensus of that debate was a clear delete with 5 editors and the nominator (myself) agreeing that she was not notable enough yet and the only keep !vote coming from the creator, which as the closing admin said was "not based in any policy or

becoming an article, despite the fact that it had been rejected several times due to lack of notability. While this does not invalidate any points that she has made during this AFD, closing admin should keep this in mind when making a final decision on what to close this discussion as.
541:) 02:07, 9 December 2016 (UTC) I never said was specially qualified, you just made a rather abrupt assumption. I'm simply stating that this area is my specialty and offering my point of view. No where in there did I state I was "specially qualified" as you wrongly assumed I meant. 801:
Funny you say that. You must have forgotten these articles. I found many more, but these were just a few I selected that covered the most information. Songwritersmarketplace.com's in depth interview with her, Women Around Town's marticle and interview with her, her own website
1204:
seems like a good solution to me. I just added a couple details with additional sources but agree more is needed--but I also think this is one where it's reasonable to guess we may see more very soon, so with offers on the table to host the draft, I think that's a good route.
864:
If the issue was just providing sources to cite the information in the article, those articles would be enough. However, what we need here are sources to prove notability. These articles are from more obscure websites and do not count as significant media coverage.

and myself. But based on the trajectory of Lawson's career, I think it's likely that Lawson will achieve notability in the next few years. And given recent improvements to the article, I'd prefer to hang onto the content as a

472:
I'd think that tours are not notable productions. Serving as a replacement on Broadway is minimally significant, but there's only one such credit. And the tv and film stuff doesn't seem notable to me.

741:) 02:13, 9 December 2016 (UTC) Actually, it is true. Neither of those actors are playing PRINCIPAL cast members, which mean leading roles. Lawson, however, is playing a principal role. 338:
I agree with that. If she gets several more Broadway credits or becomes part of the original cast for a new Broadway show, she can easily become notable. She's just not there yet.

With tours, I think originating a role in the first tour would be somewhat significant; however, none of her roles fall into that category.
