[edit] Fiona Volpe

Fiona Volpe (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The only Bond girl I can think of who could ever warrant a separate article would be maybe Pussy Galore, who is mostly notable for her name. Yet there are individual pages for everyone from Jill Masterton to Bibi Dahl to Christmas Jones. These should all be deleted or redirected appropriately. Paliku 23:17, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

• I was originally trying to find a way to list Bond girl generically without nominating that specific article, but I have decided to nominate Fiona Volpe instead since that was the original article I had redirected to the film before realizing the problem was so widespread. Sorry. Paliku 23:24, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

• ...And she was apparently already voted on so I guess I'll let someone else handle this. Paliku 23:27, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
• Keep No particular reason given for deletion. These films remain massively popular & the Bond girls iconic. Johnbod 00:34, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete fails WP:Plot and WP:WAF. Massively popular or not you still have to follow policy. Ridernyc 00:40, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

I completely fail to see what bearing either policy has here. The article is certainly not written in a in-world perspective, nor is it a plot summary. If you believe it contradicts either, please be specific as to how. Johnbod 01:13, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

• Keep and add references. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 05:15, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Major characters in the biggest film franchise of them all. Nick mallory 05:39, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
• Close without prejudice. The user appears to have meant well, but seeing as this particular character's fate was already settled and the bigger picture is too broad to generalize (i.e. there are definitely certain Bond girls who don't merit a page, but some do merit one), this discussion should be closed. I would say, however, that the specific articles cited do not assert notability outside of the connection to the films and therefore would fail a vote. You can probably be bold and take care of pages like Bibi. I know the Bond girl article is not what was nominated, but since it is in the AfD title, I think we'd all say keep that article.

• Keep Major cultural figures, and enough has been written about most in the reviews etc of the films for individual articles.
