The result was redirect to Meg Bennett. Duplicated article. No need to continue this discussion here, consider nominating the article with the correct spelling, provided that WP:BEFORE is observed. (non-admin closure) Kraxler (talk) 17:09, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

Rather simple case of a non-notable bio and the most notable thing would be the awards won associated for her work with the daytime dramas but my searches found nothing at all (aside from passing mentions at Books) to suggest better sourcing, notability and improvement (this has existed since September 2005). Notifying passing editor DGG for comment. SwisterTwister talk 05:55, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

- Speedy redirect to Meg Bennett, the correct spelling, where we find a better-sourced article about this notable TV writer. --Arxiloxos (talk) 07:55, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect if you like, but then that should be listed for deletion. The most notable thing would be writer of 2 significant series, but checking our articles on them, she seems not to have been the principal writer of either. She was writer of Sunset Beach for a very short time during the life of the show, and the article on the much more impt. General Hospital doesn't even mention her (and she's way down on the list in the outside sources). I have learned not to assume a possibility of overstatement inarticles about individuals in this field. Nor do her activing roles seem to be major characters. DGG ( talk ) 08:58, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
- A model and soap actress who became a long-lasting writer with 6 award wins and 9 nominations on 5 series, one as head writer; a career unusual enough to be the subject of a substantial 1983 People profile [1] as well as assorted articles such as [2][3][4][5][6]. She passes GNG, if marginally, and our coverage of soaps is better for keeping an article about someone with this career profile. --Arxiloxos (talk) 15:46, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
- She's notable for sure. Totally agree with Arxiloxos. At first I thought there were 2 Meg Bennett's with one as Bennett and the other here as Bennet. Seems both articles have been created independently of each other. How about that! Great article about her on People June 06, 1983. And as soon as I saw her image here Meg Bennett as Megan Richardson, Paul Johansson as Greg Hughes I remembered seeing her on TV, not that I'm admitting to anything though. And there's this Actress Meg Bennett attends Exclusive Photo Session on February 22, 1983 at her home in Los Angeles, California. Karl Twist (talk) 09:36, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
- Speedy redirect as per Arxiloxos and Karl Twist. Sources here and here, awards, etc.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 13:58, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
