[edit] Taylor Lea Thomas

Delete. Alexa ranks the advertised site in the hundreds of thousands. Does not seem notable from limited research. Reads like an advert. Way too much info there. (note: no year listed for birthdate - leads me to believe it is written by someone with the subject's interests in mind) Wickethewok 08:28, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete vanity page for nn wedding planner. Elite Soirée also needs bringing to here as nn advert (which I'll do). Kcordina 09:35, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Comment. The page has now been rewritten to include much more detail. I still say delete as the subject still fails WP:BIO. Kcordina 09:41, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per Kcordina. Feezo (Talk) 14:06, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Merge the company info into Elite Soirée, where it should be anyway, as the company does seem to be fairly notable and the person's only notability is the company. -Dawson 18:08, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete As to age, it says she is 24, which means she's unlikely to have achieved as much in business as the article would like us to think. Golfcam 23:30, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. --Khoikhoi 03:56, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
• Note Creator of the article removed the {{afd}} tag (and has done so a couple of other times for other articles). I've dropped a note on his talk page requesting that he not do this, and hopefully that'll prevent him from removing the tag again, but you may want to keep an eye on the article to ensure that the tag stays up there.

  • Comment: It wasn't the article's creator who removed the tag; however, it was the user with the majority of the article's edits to their name. Andy Saunders 13:23, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Wickethewok. Andy Saunders 13:23, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
  • After doing further research on the subject at hand, I move my vote to Very strong delete; the subject only has 81 Google hits, including one where her company is looking to hire a freelance writer to extol this woman's virtues (check the bottom of the page). One wonders now if this series of articles is part of this process. Andy Saunders 20:53, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Dear Readers: Thank you for your interest in this article. We have read every single comment and we're doing all we can to make this article better. The birth year will be added since I did not know it before. The feedback is very, very valuable and we most certainly appreciate it. The comments left by all of you can only aid in making this article much better. As noted for Elite Soiree, its success is attributed to it's founder due to her tenacity and dedication to her work, even at a young age (born 1980; she's 26 by the way), which has garnered her awards, TV opportunities, books and some of the most noted celebrities today. The story of Taylor Lea Thomas is commendable which is why it is written here. Elite Soiree was started without any partners or investors yet she has managed to accomplish the aforementioned on her own. For a woman in business at her age, her accomplishments are therefore notable, as others would agree. It is in no way an advertisement and nothing more than a mere blurb about the company. Rest assured, however, that we will make this article, as well as the others, better and more informative. We therefore kindly request help in doing so since we're inexperienced here on Wikipedia. In time and with your help, we aspire to make this article one that readers enjoy reading. Most importantly, it is not intended as a sales tool or press release and should be understood as such. Again, thank you for the constructive criticism and we most certainly look forward to working with you to make it better in lieu of simply deleting it. Also, we apologize for deleting the previous tag since we were unaware of this discussion page. Thank you for your participation in this matter. Peter Sanders 11:55, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, non-notable per WP:BIO; if anything, the information should be at Elite Soirée, which I feel should go as well per discussion at its AfD. --Kinu ^t/_c 20:51, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
