[edit] Denise_Batcheff

A one-sentence article about someone who married an actor. Having been married to an actor does not mean the person's notable enough to have an encyclopedia article. Tyrenius has helped establish her notability, the article has been expanded, and that's good enough for me. I withdraw the nomination. ekedolphin 02:35, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. I don't think we can write an encyclopedia article on this person. —Encephalon 17:37, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep She wasn't just married to an actor. See Denise Batcheff's entry in IMDb as film editor in the relatively early days of cinema in the 1930s, including, for example, sound editor on Renoir's La Chienne. Tyrenius 20:52, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Tyrenius Jcuk 22:02, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep and expand as per Tyrenius, though the article as it now stands isn't any claim of notability and could have been speedied. User:Zoe|^(talk) 22:19, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I think there's a bit of a problem here, because the discussion is meant to be about the subject, but actually it's about how well the article has been written, but isn't the whole collaborative thing about other editors improving articles? OK, that is now happening, because I did the search—otherwise it would have been down the pan. I find this slightly worrying. Thoughts anyone?Tyrenius 01:28, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
    • That's pretty much how AfD works. It's the responsibility of the original author to write an article which claims notability. User:Zoe|^(talk) 01:37, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
• comment article expanded somewhat. Jcuk 22:21, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I can find nothing that substantiates any notable role she played in these early films. Meme pas en francais. Eusebeus 08:49, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I thought that had already been established. The IMDb entry shows that her notable role was that of Editor, or in French "chef monteur", which I think would be an unusual role for a woman at the time.Tyrenius 12:28, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
