[edit] Cheyenne Brando

• Keep - she was a key player in unfortunate events, albeit made notorious by the family connection.--mdecker

Doesn't seem to be notable in herself, add important info to Marlon Brando and/or Christian Brando. Arniep 11:21, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

• weak keep I would say that she is notable, since there was a huge court case surrounding her, her father, and her brother. Roodog2k 13:50, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - I don't believe that suicides by relatives of famous people are worthy of their own articles. Content can be merged into the famous people articles. Montco 15:55, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
• I vote to keep this. She was newsworthy for a number of years. There must be people who would want to get the facts. In fact, I did. Also this is a much more interesting article than some, like individual episodes of TV programs. Rbraunwa 18:09, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I don't think she was ever in the news before the court case, and really even then the focus was more on her brother than her. I think we should just redirect this to Marlon or Christian Brando. Arniep 19:33, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep - she was a notable participant in at least briefly notable unfortunate events. Georgewilliamherbert 19:53, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Nomination seems to be part of a campaign to delete category:Famous people's relatives who committed suicide by emptying the category.--Mike Selinker 19:55, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I nominated these as various other articles of relatives of famous people have been deleted and we need to decide whether just the fact that a person committed suicide but has not done anything really of note during their own life makes them notable enough for an encyclopedia article.

• Merge per nom; I don't think she's independently notable. --kingboyk 22:40, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep, model involved in several news events including her suicide. Deizio 23:47, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I don't think she was really a serious model, but perhaps the fact she was at the heart of the shooting case makes her noteworthy. Arniep 00:09, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

• Simplify and merge with Marlon Brando unless information/evidence indicating her own notability as a model included. David Kernow 01:55, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, involved in sequence of unfortunate events treated as highly newsworthy by media. Monicasdude 23:04, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
