This article is about a person with a weak claim to notability and no coverage of significance in reliable sources. The biggest claim appears to be giving the VP nomination address at the Democratic National Convention. Whpq (talk) 14:17, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Puff piece, likely WP:COI-created. Nothing this person has done meets the WP:GNG, the first google hit really for her speech is to her facebook page. Tarc (talk) 16:18, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of People-related deletion discussions. —Tom Morris (talk) 16:25, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per Tarc. Stuartyeates (talk) 01:58, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and fix. --Bluejay Young (talk) 00:18, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Without a definite idea of how this person meets the guidelines for notability and some reliable sources to back that idea up, the article is unfixable. If you have either, I would encourage you to supply them. Stuartyeates (talk) 00:53, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per nom and Tarc. -- P 1 9 9 • TALK 02:42, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I have cleaned up the article and added references. --MelanieN (talk) 03:14, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Passing blurbs that assert precisely zilch for notability, nothing more. This is the kind of wiki-bio that needs to be actively discouraged. Tarc (talk) 19:37, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Tarc's two entries, and per the distressing, overwhelming glut of non-notable and tedious biographies like this one that clog Wikipedia and require countless untold editorial hours to sift through and discuss. --Seduisant (talk) 02:43, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete: Of the sources proffered, the Dover Post is a local weekly, the "ABCLocal" cite is in fact a website-only piece from the local television station, and the other sources mention the subject only in passing. No evidence the subject passes WP:BIO. Ravenswing 11:50, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
