The result of the debate was delete in current form, but I'm going to contact User:Angusmclellan and see if he will recreate to assert notability as stated. I'm not convinced the two are the same, and as the current article has one line of text, it should be speedied, anyway. Proto||type 13:16, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ivy Close

Prod was removed because she is (supposedly) a former Miss Great Britain. I can't really find any evidence, and Google certainly doesn't help. If she exists, she doesn't seem notable. Aplomado ^talk 15:06, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Since the only piece of information in the article can't be verified, the article is basically nothing. -- Kicking222 16:12, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unverifiable, almost certainly a vanity hoax. Check "what links here" before deleting... Just zis Guy you know? 16:34, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. More than unverifiable, positively verifiably false: there is no Ivy Close among any of the past winners of Miss Great Britain or Miss United Kingdom. — Haeleth Talk 19:00, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Actually, upon further research I found this article about her. Searching her in conjunction with her husband's unusual name also turns up more than 400 results on Google. She was born in 1890 which would explain why she isn't listed in the Miss Great Britain roles, which only go back to the 1940s. Notability is still sketchy though, and I didn't see any reference to Miss Great Britain, though she did win a beauty contest. Aplomado ^talk 19:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above Ydam 20:41, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per User:Aplomado's googling, if the subject is Mrs Elwin Neame, who appears to have been notable. I'll rewrite if kept. Angus McLellan (Talk) 18:11, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep in light of Angus McLellan's offer to rewrite and make notability clear. Zaxem 12:01, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
