  • Keep - Hennessy is a veteran news presenter and host in the Trinidad and Tabago community and has received a wide variety of coverage in multiple reliable sources. The New York Times even [http://travel.nytimes.com/2007/10/28/travel/28trinidad.html?pagewanted=2 describes her] as a "local television star". Meets WP:GNG. --Jezebel'sPonyobons mots 18:44, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep. I'd expect online references to be hard to find for Trinidad-based stars, however [http://travel.nytimes.com/2007/10/28/travel/28trinidad.html?pagewanted=2 this reliable source] acknowledges her status in the community, albeit weakly. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 18:49, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep - this is a trinidadian article so i expect it does not have much sources just like other trinidadian articles,she is a very famous person. 190.213.51.85 (talk) 23:06, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep - i agree with all those reasons above and the decision to keep the article :) 744cody (talk) 23:09, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep there are lots of quality in-depth sources. John Vandenberg (chat) 09:23, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

  • Keep Another source [http://guardian.co.tt/news/2011/05/09/allyson-hennessy-passes-63 here] in Trinidad and Tobago's oldest newspaper. Looks like someone who was much loved by the people she served. If they think she's notable enough for multiple updates on her progress whilst she was ill [http://www.newsday.co.tt/news/0,138977.html] [http://www.trinidadexpress.com/news/Allyson_needs_blood-120257384.html] [http://guardian.co.tt/news/2011/04/21/allyson-gets-needed-blood] (including the apparent involvement of the country's Health Minister re blood donation (see ref 2)) then she's notable enough for here. (Would still be nice to get a full obit to flesh out the article a little, though) Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 00:36, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

:Sorry, that should have been "see ref 3" Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 00:38, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

::She was also awarded the [http://www.ttpba.org.tt/media_excellence_detail.php?id=6 Trinidad & Tobago Publishers and Broadcasters Association’s Award for Media Excellence 2009] (page displays poorly on my browser but she's there). Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 01:08, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

  • Strong keep - the article is now well sourced, and she easily meets WP:GNG. Guettarda (talk) 04:11, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
