The questioning of active BBC TV presenter Ashley Storrie’s page suitability

@Jkaharper

Please explain why you have twice added a notability tag to this article, suggesting that it’s notability is “seriously questionable”. Elinoria (talk) 09:42, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I restored that banner – as it was removed within such a short time space of myself adding it, and without any discussion. Quick Google doesn't suggest widespread notability to me. Low profile comedian, of which there are 10s of thousands in the UK. The only thing I can see that may justify her having an individual page is the fact that she is a BBC Radio Scotland presenter, but again that could be debated as there are 1000s of "local" or "regional" presenters in the country, not all need Wikipedia pages. --Jkaharper (talk) 11:26, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jkaharper
Please remove the banner.
As per her article, Storrie is a national radio presenter on BBC Radio Scotland, with a weekly show.
She has had her own show on BBC Radio 4, and stars in the BBC Three comedy, Dinosaur, a programme that she co-created. Elinoria (talk) 15:18, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I’ll wait for other opinions first. You have no autonomy here. --Jkaharper (talk) 16:14, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with @Elinoria on this. She and her BBC show Dinosaur are leading the nominations at this year's Scottish BAFTAs. She has presented multiple BBC radio shows on a national level and has almost 60,000 followers on Facebook alone. I believe she satisfies Wikipedia's notability criteria.
