I have not edited your post. I simply used the correct mechanism to sign some of mine that I forgot. Since you have been caught out trying to use a false objection, namely that LK was employed by the History Channel during the time she was featured, you have started adding pedantic, whiny, comments

She has been featured in dozens of TV programmes over multiple series over several years years. These have been seen by millions of people in many countries around the world. These series are securely archived on published DVD's and the information in the article can be abstracted from these. It is

If you provide a credible source for that I'll consider it (but it must be a credible source that shows they were the people who employed her to do that for which she is being claimed noteworthy - you can't disclaim noteworthiness on the basis that someone later happens to employ someone they have

Please understand again, there's no attempt to 'wikilawyer' anything here . . . your argument fails the notability guidelines for wikipedia on 4/5 points. I've been trying to find other articles online to demonstrate some notability, but the one mini article from fox news that mentions her in

None of the keep arguments previously expressed make up for the issues with sourcing. 927:
previously featured as something other than an employee). At the moment, as far as I am aware, she was simply a person who was featured on several series of TV programmes. Her employer, as far as it is relevant to the reason for her notaability, was the trucking companies for whom she drove.

This whole debate is entirely irrelevant. The sole matter at issue is whether Kelly merits her own article, and who employs her has nothing to do with this whatsoever. The History Channel self-evidently isn't a third-party source when reporting on matters concerning its own program content.
535:- If she is as notable as people are implying then find some independent references and add them to the article. Newspapers, books, etc. would all work and I would change my merge to a keep. However, to date no references that aren't self published or IRT promo stuff have been provided.-- 873:. Her notability arises from being featured on several series of programmes. If we were to use the logic you seem to be using: that anyone featured by some media operation - newspaper, magazine, tv producer, magazine publisher, etc, becomes an employee of that operation then 643:
to further understand why people do not agree that Lisa Kelly's personal website and facebook account valid sources in this case. Since you seem confused as to why the DVDs produced by L. Kelly's employer and her own website/facebook account are not sufficient to establish

If featuring someone or something means that you are no longer a secondary source with respect to that thing then you can never have a secondary source. Hence your assertion is absurd. The point is that THC

beyond ridiculous that someone so well known to so many people would fail inclusion tests when minor musicians or sportsmen can be included on the basis of some insignificant article in a local paper.

Ooops. OK, I forgot to add all the tildes. Mea culpa. But anyone with the slightest intelligence could immediately see who put them there. But keep on wiki-lawyering as it seems to keep you happy.

Why bother? If people insist on wiki-lawyering on the basis that someone as relatively well known as LK must have citations that are not self-published then they must accept the rules. There
1235:- In light of the sources that Sionk has found (and have been added to the article) I've changed my merge to keep. The article is still leaning pretty heavily on primary sources though.-- 183: 860:
Comment - I think you are the one who is confused. And your confusion seems to so serious enough that it entirely explains why the wall of text above is not relevant. The History Channel

Your argument would hold more weight if we could provide some of the independent material that you have said exists out there. I've only been able to find the following pseudo-story:

as there are no reliable sources that are independent of the subject that address the subject directly in detail (her employer, the History network is not independent of the subject.

as she has been heavily featured in three seasons of Ice Road Truckers and two seasons of IRT: Deadliest Roads. Definitely notable as a trucker, reality star, and motocross racer.

As a further aside, it's not good etiquette to add unsigned comments in the middle of blocks of text written by other users. You might want to give
734:"Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability". There are no secondary sources, just Kelly and her employer. 223:"Per WP:BIO (especially WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO): notability not established; relies largely on 2 primary sources, including a self-published source" 1181:- there appear to be insufficient independent reliable sources to establish any notability for Kelly beyond her participation in the TV programs. 204: 171: 114: 17: 1249: 1062: 1012: 963: 916: 848: 602: 549: 478: 1046: 165: 427: 612:
