Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/JC Lamkin
Ken, you are obviously enthusiastic about this article, and I hope you keep that enthusiasm as you embark on your wiki-career. You are correct that the number of google hits is not a strict indicator of how notable somebody is, but in this case it is making it difficult for us to verify the information in the article.  I took a few minutes to look over the sources again, and unfortunately, I have to stand my my !vote - there was http://www.naturalorganizedwomansororityincorporated.com/2006AwardsLuncheon.htm an awards lunchon put on by a group who's home page featured a story about Anita T. Conner, but the website lists no further information nor does it mention the name of the award, and nowhere is Lamkin's name associated with the award, so unfortunately, that bit of info is completely unsourced.  The film festival info is also unverifable, as the link you posted doesn't list the name of the movies participating, and Google provided us with no reliable verification that the movie "The Struggle for Safer Streets" was produced by Ms. Lamkin.  I did find a story in this local/regional newspaper http://www.scoopusanewspaper.com/ScoopAugust0406.pdf about Ms. Lamkin (page 8), and besides noting that the 4th paragraph of the wiki article was a borderline copyvio of the story, it did not appear to me that this is a |reliable source, nor could I find any other mentions of Ms. Lamkin winning those awards.  It is quite obvious hat Ms. Lamkin is a powerful force within her community, but there are many, many people that are powerful forces in their communities around the world - and while thats admirable, if others aren't writing about their accomplishments, then we cannot verify them, and if we can't verify them, then they can't be here
