[edit] Kathleen Christison

NN. Only real assertion of notability is from her book, which gets only 150 Ghits [1] [2], practically all of which are blogs. Aaron 02:18, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

• Delete She's written a book and some articles that have been picked up in leftist and Arab publications some of which are notable. If she were writing about just about any topic other than the Israeli-Palestinian conflict she would easily fail notability guidelines. She gets some pretty big google numbers but I think that has more to do with the topic she's writing about than what she has to say. However, if we adapt the academic notability test and consider all of the people who regularly write about this issue she is certainly not more notable than the average person writing about the topic.

• Keep Are you kidding? There were very few (less than 200) CIA case officers worldwide during her tenure. That alone makes her story notable. Her political position is not what makes her notable. --Blainster 21:27, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Change to Neutral Oops, found out the Christisons were analysts, of which there are many, not case officers. --Blainster 21:37, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
