[edit] Ila Loetcher

Ila Loetcher (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Seems to be a cut and paste biography that doesn't appear to establish notability Neonblak 19:48, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Delete article is completely unacceptable and is probably a copyright violation. However a quick google search shows that this person could most likely have an article if an effort is made to get real information. --Daniel J. Leivick 21:40, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per Sea Turtles and cleanup as there are many sources (e.g. [1] and a biography [2] of this "turtle lady". --Tikiwont 16:16, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

putting the sources into the article could convince people easier Alf^Photoman 20:50, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree and this is what I actually try in easier cases. This one, however, needs a complete overhaul which could also be done from scratch. --Tikiwont 09:41, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Keep, sources are available, so lets hope that someone cleans this thing up Alf^Photoman 11:57, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per Tikiwont, as there seem to be sources to satisfy BIO. Some info as to the source of the text in the article can be found here. Hard to say if it's a copyright violation or not, but the article clearly needs stubbing/a radical overhaul. I will commit to cleaning it up if there is a consensus to keep.--Kubigula (talk) 18:43, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - It looks like the community would like to keep the article, so if Kubigula or anyone else wants to overhaul it, I will withdraw my nomination early, no need to keep debate open. Neonblak 22:37, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment. I did some brief initial research to see what's on the 'net, and I can definitely mold this into a decent short article. At the outset, one clear problem with our article is that it's in the wrong name - the lady's name was "Ila Loetscher". So, step one is a move.--Kubigula (talk) 23:14, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Follow-up - I went ahead and rewrote the article (which is now at the correct spelling). It still needs work, but it's a start.--Kubigula (talk) 05:52, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
