[edit] Catherine Damicourt

Sole claim to notability is marrying Louis XIV's court musician and bearing "19" children. There's no evidence she was notable for everything else and the book mentions are limited to this one questionably accurate sentence. Notability is not inherited and the line is covered in his, she isn't notable enough for her own. TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 17:14, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. I think you meant to say "marrying Marin Marais, the court musician for Louis XIV". Notability is not inherited, and the spouse of a composer, if that's all she's known for, is not notable -- no matter how many children she bore. --Dhartung | Talk 18:31, 28 April 2008 (UTC) Fixed now. --Dhartung | Talk 21:17, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect Notability isn't inherited or married, but there's nothing wrong with having her name up as a redirect. Nyttend (talk) 01:55, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment She's quite V, she just isn't very N, actually. --Dhartung | Talk 11:49, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
