[edit] Helena Carr

• Keep. Though her publicity is somewhat due to her husband, she has shown many considerable achievements, and thus should be considered notable.

Not notable. brenneman^(t)(c) 12:12, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

It's OK, straight to the point. Someone should add more to it though so we can get more information on her. 10.18, 3 August 2005 Unnotable, delete as it stands. UkPaolo 12:43, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete- doesn't claim any separate notability other than via marriage. Average Earthman 12:51, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. --BradBeattie 15:35, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unless she's actually done anything notable. Has she? DS 17:04, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

*Delete. Eldereft 17:46, 3 August 2005 (UTC)</>

• Keep revised and expanded version, a glorious success for collaborative editing. Eldereft 21:48, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

• Redirect to Bob Carr, unless she is shown to be notable. Thue | talk 18:18, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete notability is not inherited, or married into. Be notable in your own right before getting an article. -Splash 19:39, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Helena Carr is notable in her own right as a self-made millionaire. I have expanded the article to reflect this. —Theo (Talk) 19:41, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
  • I see no change to the article. -Splash 20:10, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

    Yikes! Nor do I! Ho hum: an hour's writing wasted. Sigh … —Theo (Talk) 20:37, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and expand. Notable as owner of printing company employing over 1000 people until recently. see [1]. She has her own entry in Who's Who in Australia 2005 (page 379) Millionaire in her own right. Capitalistroadster 01:54, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. Have expanded on the article. No change of vote from keep. Capitalistroadster 10:41, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, notability is not inheritable. Radiant_>|< 13:47, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, seems some people think wives can't be notable. :D New version by Theo and Capitalistroadster is actually a very pretty little article. --zippedmartin 16:30, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep notable wife of a fairly boring and mundane (ex) premier. JamesBurns 04:50, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable in her own right, not and also because she is someone'a leading politician's spouse. Anyways, there are a few articles on spouses/offspring of US pollies - where's the dividing line to be?.--cjllw | TALK 08:43, 2005 August 9 (UTC)
  • amended text of my above comment, as it did not read quite the way I had intended. Spouses of leading politicians will often be deserving of notability - IMO.--cjllw | TALK 09:05, 2005 August 9 (UTC)
