[edit] Alice Timander
I believe that the person has no relevance to any form of history, other than possibly Swedish dentistry(?). Crassic (T+C) 23:34, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
Weak delete per lack of verifiable sources:"If an article topic has no reliable, third-party sources, Wikipedia should not have an article on it."She doesn't clear notability for her acting, but it does look as if she might have an award-winning documentary about her. Searching English news sources, I've found blog-style references to her as a public persona, but nothing per Wikipedia's policy.If these can be produced, I may well change my opinion, but in the absence of them her notability seems unverifiable.--Moonriddengirl 00:17, 28 August 2007 (UTC)- Comment: Changed opinion to Keep. Now that it's confirmed that it is an award-winning documentary about her, and in consideration of other changes to the article, I have changed my opinion. :) The award-winning documentary seems to satisfy Wikipedia: Notability (people) with "The person has been the subject of a credible independent biography." It would be nice if there were English sources, but the lack of them is not inherently fatal. --Moonriddengirl 12:03, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Was one of the most well known celebrities in Sweden. Swedish National TV recently made a 2 hour documentary on Timander etc, etc... ~--Camptown 08:34, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
