[edit] Giada De Laurentiis

This was tagged with a speedy because "it's an advert", but she seems like a possibly notable person (16,700 hits) so I brought it here. No vote from me. 21:19, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC) Copyvio being rewritten, Keep the rewrite. Kappa Kappa 12:28, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment. I have tagged this article as a copyvio. The bulk of the material was pulled from Giada's Food Network profile. I beleive that Giada De Laurentiis is notable enough to justify a wikipedia article, but this is not the article. --Allen3 22:35, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
    • A rewrite has been begun at Giada De Laurentiis/Temp --Allen3 23:07, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep with rewrite. Appears to have some notability on Google. Megan1967 02:25, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep with rewrite. Her show is gaining popularity, and she's also a cookbook author. — RJH 16:40, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Vote to suspend voting until the rewrite is finished. --Smithfarm
  • Keep. Definitely notable, there's no doubt here. – flamurai (t) 02:32, Mar 27, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and proceed with rewrite. She is notable, as most noted Food Network chefs like Alton Brown, Rachael Ray, Bobby Flay, Emeril Lagasse, Mario Batali, Jamie Oliver, Tyler Florence, Paula Deen (which I wrote) and others have undisputed wikis. --Kitch 13:08, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • This vfd can be closed. As part of the copyvio cleanup, I have deleted the original article and replaced it with the rewrite formerly at the temp page. RedWolf 04:46, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)
