Wikipedia:Source assessment/Tina Wesson

Tina Wesson, an American contestant, won Survivor: The Australian Outback and reappeared in Survivor: All-Stars and Survivor: Blood vs. Water. In the second AFD nomination, she was considered notable for only winning that season (WP:BIO1E if not WP:BLP1E), so the consensus agreed to merge the article into that Australian Outback one.

One time, one editor tried to restore the article twice, but such attempts were reverted. Another time, another editor tried to do the same, but the effort was undone with this edit summary: Refs are WP:PRIMARY on a WP:BLP.

Please further note: Complying with WP:GNG may still be inadequate to make her notable. Per WP:sustained coverage, the potential restored/revived article should still comply with policies of Wikipedia, like WP:NOT.
