[edit] Charlotte Martyn
Not notable enough. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 16:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep. I agree that it looks unlikely that the subject is notable, but this page is under construction and has even been noted as such with the proper template. It has been less than a week since the template was added. I don't support sending up articles so tagged for AfD so quickly. If it had been a month, go ahead with it.

- Comment - the article needs to more clearly establish the importance of the subject. I'm not sure that tossing it into AFD so quickly is a good idea. Better to work with the original author to establish that, and failing that effort, bring it here. -- Whpq 17:00, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Nlu should post to talk that the author needs to state more clearly her special notability. Then allow the author to more clearly address that. Nlu should withdraw nomination in the meantime, as a stub here will probably only lead to more piling on, and an untimely deletion. Wjhonson 17:07, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- But the thing is, as stated, I don't believe that the subject can satisfy the notability requirement whatever is added about her. She's a magazine article writer of no particular notability, and adding works that she has written will not add to her notability. --Nlu (talk) 20:18, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. The article on Charlotte Martyn has two claims: 1) she's the Production Editor for ONM, and 2) she was a contributor to Games Magazine. [1] specifically admits she's one of the lesser members of the team, and being a contributor to Games (of which there are many) probably doesn't meet the threshold either. If you can dig up independent news sources about her accomplishments then I'll be happy to take it back, but for now, Delete.
- Delete. It isn't that the article needs to flesh out or verify claims of notability. There simply aren't any claims of notability. She's a production editor for a magazine. If somebody can add some fact about her not currently hinted at, I'll be glad to revisit, but right now it looks like a CSD-A7. Fan-1967 21:58, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Nothing in the article, no matter how rewritten will add up to notability. There's nothing on Google that suggest notability. Dlyons493 Talk 00:25, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Had extensive knowledge of Arcane words is not a claim to notability. Borderline hoaxy. ~ trialsanderrors 19:28, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- delete asserting her importance on the ground that "Without Charlotte's work the magazine would feature a lot more mistakes and errors and thus not reach the standard that Nintendo fans request from the official magazine" is utter rubbish. That's the editor's job. Nintendo magazine's Editor does not seem very notable to me. Ohconfucius 09:14, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
