The result of the nomination was Keep. For starters, the "vote" was 4-2 Keep. However, only one of the Keep commentors made any real argument. But that argument is reasonable: she holds the all-time scoring record in a major sport of at a (famous) Division I school. But... the program only started the year she joined it, so how big an accomplishment is that? Nevertheless, she was a star (and later played professionaly for the Philadelphia Rage). She doesn't lack notabilily to the extent that it would be proper to go against the majority in closing, I don't think. Herostratus 02:11, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Beth Morgan (basketball)

As an amateur player in a professional sport she clearly fails WP:BIO and fails the new guidelines being discussed. Her 'notability' is within her University, only, in any case. Delete. BlueValour 15:56, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Illustrates reasoning for inclusion, but just barely. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 17:24, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, notability established. --badlydrawnjeff talk 00:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Extremely successful Div 1 College Athlete. -- GWO
• Comment - none of these statements are sourced so none can be relied upon. Without sourced figures notability cannot be established. BlueValour 21:57, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep ranks number 1 on the school's all-time scoring list and a [two-time] First-Team all Big East selection are assertions of notability. She also particiated in International competition and [1] as Beth Cunningham. Eluchil404 00:54, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
